Can hard lump on my forearm mean a fracture?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through the attachments (attachment removed to protect patient identity).

It does not seem like a fracture.

I would like to know few things for clarity.

• Do you find any difficulty in moving your hand or anything else?

• Is there any kind of color change at the site of injury?

• Have you noticed any bruises?

Few probable causes of swelling:

• Hemarthrosis.

• Post-traumatic edema.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

It does not seem to be a major injury and you do not need to worry much.

Proper use of medication and try to restrict for some days from lifting heavy weight will heal.

I suggest you take tablet Diclofenac twice daily for five days and tablet Chymoral Forte (Trypsin Chymotrypsin) twice daily for five days.

Try to avoid too much rubbing and keeping warm something which may cause local injuries.

It is better to apply ice packs for few days regularly.
