How long ago did you fall? How did you fall and from how high? Did you fall on pavement or inside the house on the floor? Did you injure anything else?

You may want to make sure you didn’t injure anything more seriously and see an orthopedic hip specialist. You may want/need some imaging done. You could have torn a gluteal muscle/tendon.

Have you tried rest/ice and anti-inflammatory medication (like NSAIDs/Motrin/Advil)? Have you tried topical Voltaren gel to reduce inflammation?

Many thanks for your prompt attention. I fell inside the house while playing with my grand child. I went to ER and luckily no fractures. I am 73 years old. They diagnosed it as Hematoma. I have been resting and also applying ice. Just curious how long will it take to heal completely. Regards
