Dear Catherine,
Oh, I know, I know, I know EXACTLY what you are experiencing 'cause I just experienced this and the little pea size lump is gone.
I didn't bump my leg but when I had my DIEP reconstruction last month I was given TONS of heparin shots in my thighs. Hence....bruising and very sore thigh muscles. After a few weeks I noticed that where one of the bruises was I now had a small pea size, very firm, lump. FREAKED ME OUT TOO. I'm thinkin' - "come on, how could it be...no way...." and of coursed touched it and touched it and touched it CONTINUALLY. Then I quit touching it and told myself to leave it alone. Just today after reading your post I touched their (cause I forgot about it till reading this) and it is gone.
Not a doubt the same will be true for you.........oh to have bumps and bruises again and to think it could ONLY be a bump or a bruise huh? Those days are gone....but oh well!!
Love to you and nice hearing from you again,
Mary Jo
