Bruising, hard-like ball swelling continues after removal of Hematoma after TT?

April 30, 2014
Asked By:tucsa17

I am 16 days post TT. Right after surgery, some type of indentation showed on what is now a right side with a ball- like swollen area and bruised. My ps removed about 15-20 cc of very dark fluid yesterday and said I had a hematoma. My concern was also that the bruised area seemed as if the skin had been glued to underlying tissue, not giving in to gentle push or pull of the skin. Today, the "ball" remains the same size, still hard. Opinions please?
