Question hi dr,,thanks for ur previous advice,,im already saw and met 1 general surgeon and another plastic sugery doctor,,both comment that i do have hematoma resolving- blood clot,with no fever and no bruises or redness,both comment that time and body structure will melt and absorb that blood clot ,,what u think,,yr advice highly appreciated,,thanks
Answer Hi Bill,
If you've seen two doctors who agree on the assessment (what you have, what the likely course is) then you (and I!) would have to go with their opinions at this stage. You should, of course, keep in touch with one or both of them as you go through your recovery to make sure you stay on track but, at this point, it sounds as though things are going well, so you should go with what they say.
