I developed a seroma on lower back and had it drained twice. I rolled entire area with rolling pin to smooth out lumps, and next day it started bruising, now the seroma is getting bigger, and harder, am worried it will stay llike this, its does not seem like there is alot of liquid left like before but its getting bigger and harder....any advice.
