Conversation: The conversation between human and AI assistant.
[|Human|] My father twisted suddenly, felt a sharp pain in his hip....it swelled just below his waist to the size of a softball. He iced it and has been resting for 6 days. It s still sore and has become very black and blue from the top of his thigh to just above his knee. What could have caused this? He is almost 94 and still walks 3 miles a day and is anxious to get back to walking. I have told him to discontinue his 81 mg of aspirin that he takes everyday. Is that ok?
[|AI|]  Thank you for the information you have furnished here. If we see the picture we can come to the diagnosis... it may be hematoma. Even... it will be subsided shortly.... with in a 10days or so. meanwhile better consult doctor to rule out any fractures or morale Lowell lesion. If it is contusion he can go for walking no issues in that. Better do some hot water mopping over the lesion it will help you. don't bother. He will become normal with in a week or two
