[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 484939, member: 3444"] No experience with an abdominal hematoma, BUT (no pun intended) I had a perineal hematoma after delivering difficult child 1 that was still the size of a lemon at my 6-week checkup -- that's when they finally diagnosed why I'd been in such horrible pain immediately post-partum and for so long afterwards (morons thought I was being a baby when I was screaming about the pain feeling like a baseball bat rammed up my hind end). The treatment for the hematoma was hot, hot hot-as-you-can-stand-it sitz baths, so I imagine for the abdominal area a heating pad would be the next best thing short of a hot-tub. I gave myself a baaaad hematoma on the side of my calf last summer and I STILL have a lump where the salad-plate-sized bruise was. It's only about silver-dollar sized now, but it itches like crazy and I'm treating it with the heating pad for about 20 min each night -- seems to help. Kudos to Wiz for stepping up like that!
