I couldn't find a forum with this particular issue, so hopefully somebody can help. Two years ago I was in a serious car accident with a hard impact on my side. It left me with a pocket of swelling around my hip. The doctors explained that the blood rushed down from my upper body and got stuck within the cartilage near my hip. The assured me it could take a while for the blood to move itself out, but I didn't expect two years to have gone by. Has any one heard of this before? If so, what are your experiences or suggestions? Thanks Confused
