ESTOY 3 SEMANAS DESPUÉS DE UNA CIRUGÍA DE REEMPLAZO TOTAL DE CADERA POR ENFOQUE ANTERIOR Y TENGO UN HEMATOMA DEBAJO DEL LUGAR DE LA CIRUGÍA EN MI MUSLO SUPERIOR; ¡ESTOY MUY PREOCUPADO POR ESTO! PARA AGREGAR A ESTO, SE SIENTE DURO AL TOCAR....¿POR QUÉ NO ME DIJERON QUE ESTO OCURRE A VECES DESPUÉS DE ESTA CIRUGÍA, PARA QUE NO ENTRE EN MODO DE PÁNICO? ¡ESTOY HACIENDO EXCEPCIONALMENTE BIEN DESPUÉS DE LA CIRUGÍA; DE PIE PARA TERAPIA LA NOCHE DESPUÉS DE LA CIRUGÍA, DADO DE ALTA AL DÍA SIGUIENTE Y HACIENDO MUY BIEN CAMINANDO CON AYUDA... EL DOCTOR DIJO QUE NO HAY TERAPIA FÍSICA PORQUE SOLO AGITARÍA SU PROGRESO! ¡AME LA ESTADÍA DE 1 DÍA EN EL HOSPITAL! HE PUESTO HIELO EN EL ÁREA Y SIGUE TENIENDO EL MISMO TAMAÑO... NO ES DOLOROSO, SOLO QUE NO ME GUSTA, TAMPOCO ME GUSTA ESTAR EN LA OSCURIDAD SOBRE ELLO, Y ADEMÁS DE ESO ¡TODO ESTÁ BIEN!
hi druedean,
warm welcome to this hippies forum ...
did you contact your surgeon about this ??? or perhaps your PCP ?
when did you notice the hematoma?
are you on blood thinners?
please check with your doctor and let us know the outcome ...
Happy for you that you are doing well otherwise ...
big warm hug

Creo que esto es relativamente raro, aunque no desconocido, consulte a su médico y hágaselo revisar
Hi
Just to give you some reassurance
Firstly it sounds like your doing really well in your recovery.
I had posterior approach I'm around 4 and a bit months post op.
I have a haematoma too sits at the top side of the scar large in size,it was hard to start with but now softish has not changed in size.
I was worried to start with, the consultant, gp and nurse have seen it and have all said it will go can take up to 6 months.
However I would definitely get it checked with it being hard and you can get advised which hopefully will put your mind at rest I was advised to look out for signs of infection.
It hasn't given me Any problems but it looks unsightly and sticks out due to the size.
Definitely have someone review it,I'm sure it will be fine but it's always best to check.
Regards Nicky
Hi, in no way do I want to alarm you and I'm sure if you've been told it's ok then I'm sure it is. My experience was that at the time I had my clips out I was told I had what they thought was bruising, this turned out to be hermatosis, that night wa the start of my troubles because the wound bled at the points where this collection of blood was, unfortunately this turned out to be infected, see my previous text. Just get it checked out.
Hi Druedean. I have a friend who had that happen after his surgery and it sounds the same as you. His surgeon said not to worry about it as that sometimes happens but is not dangerous. But I wouldn't like that either having a hard lump. You might want to get a second opinion if your surgeons answer is not satisfactory.
Hugs!

Tengo lo mismo. Casi tres semanas después de la cirugía de reemplazo total de cadera por abordaje anterior. El PA lo llamó inflamación mínima, pero amigos médicos me dijeron que era un hematoma. Mi amigo me dijo que lo vigilara para que no se agrande o se caliente. Planeo contactar a mi médico la próxima semana y ver qué más se puede hacer. Algunas de mis búsquedas en Google dijeron que descansar y poner hielo. ¿Tienes más información?
