Alright so this isn't that bad, I've looked online but I can't really find anything on it. So I crashed super hard on my skateboard a couple weeks back, and I hit the front of my hip pretty hard, it had a cut and stuff and now the cuts gone, little bit of a bruise is still there and now theres this wierd hard lump there too. I can move it around and its like an inch long and a quarter inch wide, anyone know what it is?
 
O and before anyone says its just a normal bruise bump thing its not, its really hard not like a squishy lump when you bump your head or something like that
 
it's probably a hematoma, where you bruise yourself so hard that shit calcifies under the skin... go to physio, otherwise it'll be permanent, a mistake i made and now it looks like i have a tumor on my thigh, awesome!
 
i had one in my elbow a little while ago from skating, but yea i think it was scar tissue or something cause it went away after about 2 weeks
 
That happened to me when I bit through my lip. After the stitches came out there was a lump like that, I waited and it's mostly gone now. It's most likely the tissue healing, or hematoma, it sounds like yours isn't serious though and will eventually dissolve on it's own.
 
sounds like it might be scar tissue i did the same thing and i still dont have any feeling in that area of my hip
 
ya bump.

uhm idono what I did but there is a slight pain in my back.. feels more in the middle to right side of my spine and it hurts to breathe in. Its about half way down my back, its nothing big and usually goes away after awhile but ive gotten it many times.. anyone else get this?
 
this happened to me and it was a bitch but right away i iced it for like 6 hours and then i strectched it and moved it and then iced it more and i did this for like 3 days and it was better. i was on ns alot for those 3 days.
 
hematoma, which is fancy for bruise. and yes it can harden, and if its in the way of something else can cause problems. or if its not in the way then you will just have a lump there. its not a huge deal. if it causes pain with movement its time to go see a doc.
 
well, i dont have extensive orthopedic knowledge but it could be something like thoracic paraspinal muscle tension. simply put, there are small muscles along the thoracic spine that can get pulled or stretched or sore or whatever. this problem could have originated from a fall or a strain or something similar. pain on inspiration could be because the muscle is tight or spasming. of course pain there can mimic all kinds of conditions like kidney stones, or angina (cardiac pain, which you should not really be at risk for), or abdominal pain from any number of causes.

if RICE tends to take care of it, then its probably muscular in nature.

i also want to add that the internet (not just newschoolers but places like WebMD) is a great educational tool for your own health concerns, but its CERTAINLY not a replacement for a doctor. if you ever have a problem, or something just doesnt feel right....SEE A DOCTOR. there is no replacing a practitioners evaluation, or your good health.

sorry to ignore your bump before
