[|Human|] Hi,Yesterday I slipped in a ditch and landed on my hell. At first it was very painful and I had a cut that bled but stopped. Then the next day I awoke and found a large bruise that covered my heel with a white centre that was hard that hurt more to touch than the bruise. It hurts to walk on and throbs. Should I consult my doctor? Thank you.
[|AI|]  Hi, I have studied your case. Traumatic injury can lead to bruise due to hematoma formation. You will need X-ray of knee and leg. Clinical examination is important to rule out knee or ankle ligament injury these symptoms analgesic and medication can be started. Till time take medication like analgesic and apply crêpe bandage over leg or use supportive splint. Do ice fomentation and rest to leg. Very rarely we need to Chat Doctor. Take precaution to avoid infection around hematoma. Consult your doctor to avoid complications. Hope this answers your query.
