[|Human|] 2 weeks after a hard fall on my bike, the road rash has heeled but I have a large swelling on my upper thigh (back and side) that makes the skin very tight and sometimes painful on the skin when I turn my leg. It is getting better gradually. I have regained mobility and notice no other symptoms. Does this need a doctor?
[|AI|]  Your symptoms suggest that you have soft tissue injury of thigh muscles. As the maximum bulk of muscle lies at thigh so It's very common to have these injuries at this site. Rest, icing and anti-inflammatory analgesics such as ibuprofen will decrease pain and swelling. It will heal in next 1-2 weeks. Hope this helps. Hope this answers your question.
