[|Human|] I was diagnosed as having a hematoma on my inner left thigh by an orthopedic Dr. The first thing he asked was if I was on blood thinners. At that time I had just gotten off xarelto a couple weeks ago. I had a successful cardio version which allowed me to stop the xarelto after being on It for 2 years. Apparently this hematoma was an after effect of the xarelto. I asked him how long would this conditions last he said probably 11-12 mos. Other than that he said I could wear a compression sleeve. How serious is this? I know at this time there is no antidote for the drug. Is there anything else I can do to help this?
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case and I do not think that hematoma stays for such long time. Most of the time they get absorbed in three weeks to three months. As you are no longer on blood thinner I would suggest you to get ultrasound guided aspiration of the thigh and Chat Doctor.  If there is again recurrence then you need to check your blood investigations. I hope this answer will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
