Hard Spot Under Bruise

Hard Spot Under Bruise

About 7 weeks ago I slipped and received a very large, deep purple bruise on my calf. The color has healed - mostly - but the spot is still very hard to the touch and feels warm. Every so often it hurts, itches and tingles. Should I be worried?

Not sure this is the correct forum for this...

Hello Dear,
You should consult an orthopedic physician as there could be a tear in the calf muscle causing the hardness and the pain.There could be a tear in the  Gastrocnemius or soleus muscle.You need to go for stretching and strengthening exercises.
You should go in for rehabilitation program and ultrasound therapy.
