Bruise.....don't look if you are squeamish

A fortnight ago I tripped as I was carrying a bundle of washing upstairs.  The result was an impressive bruise on my upper arm despite immediate application of ice and arnica.  Having had several, painful, night-time awakenings from turning over onto the bruise in my sleep, I’m relieved that the discolouration and tenderness is fading but I’m now left with a gruesome lumpy knot under the skin.  Despite all the warnings about googling symptoms (they all lead to stroke, heart attack or tumour!), I undertook some research and am satisfied that it’s a normal hematoma that will disappear in time.
