Hey all,
I'm trying to convince a 70+ y/o person (on blood thinner) in my family to see a doc.
What happened:
Fell down going to bathroom
Started with back pain
Hematoma (I assume) formed, lump in lumbar region
Later came bruising down the leg (supposedly it had begun to lighten up near injury)
Now comes fluid retention in legs
Today, I'm just informed the skin is painful to the touch
Back still sore, hard to sit down etc
This has been 2-3 weeks
What do you all think this is? Hopefully I can use your responses as reference to persuade.
If this type of thing is not allowed in the forum, please delete it.
Otherwise, thanks in advance. I'm worried.
