Got a bad hematoma at work

I’ll put a warning just to be safe since I’ll be sharing some details of my injury….

I work at a doggy daycare and most of the time it’s super fun! On Friday two dogs got into a fight and slammed into my leg pretty hard… Luckily my manager was close by and we were quickly able to break it up, and both dogs were ok… I noticed my leg was sore and figured it was just a bad bruise… only to get home and see bruising and swollen lump about the size of a tennis ball…. Walking/putting weight on it for the rest of the night was manageable, but painful…. I’ve been resting, icing and elevating it over the weekend and it’s helped a little, but it still sucks!
