Can Double Bubble Be from Swelling and Go Away over a Few Months?

June 16, 2010
Asked By:9106anon in Chicago

I have a double bubble on one side still after 4 weeks. The tissue under the original crease is discolored (was bruised) and quite tender. My PS says it is swelling and definitely not double bubble. If it were swelling wouldn't it be gone by now? Didn't think DB could be caused by swelling?
