I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Pain may be sudden and severe. Bruising and swelling may develop soon after the injury. Acute injuries usually require prompt medical evaluation and may include: bruises (contusions), which occur when small blood vessels under the skin tear or rupture, often from a twist, bump, or fall. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
