[|Human|] hi there, I was in a car accident 3 weeks ago and received a very large hematoma on my leg that swelled up instantly. since then, the swelling has gone down considerably and although I still have bruising on various parts of my leg and ankle (from drainage) i still remain with a hematoma that is 4 by 4.5 . The sensation on that part of my leg is not normal and the area is still very hard and spongy. I m wondering at what point i seek treatment, and if its safe to fly.
[|AI|]  Hello, You are suffering from soft tissue injury with hematoma. Although you have not mentioned your age I think you can observe the hematoma for a few more days, usually it takes about 4 weeks for it to completely resolve depending upon the area involved. As you say you are going to fly soon, my suggestion would be to consult your doctor if the hematoma size increases or remains same just before you fly out. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
