I bruised just above my bum after a fall I thought other than bruise and hurt pride it would b ok a week and a half later I have a lump under the skin. I am going to GP but am quite scared about this

Could you have bruised or broken your coccyx (sp?)?

Thanks for the reply Not sure as the lump is more away from the middle if you drew a line down it would be underneath shoulder

Of course you should get the GP to check it but don't panic. It sounds like a haematoma which is a lump of bruising - they can get weeks to go completely.

Let us know how you get on. I'm sure it is just to do with the bruising

Thanks it is a hematoma and will go eventually according to GP thank you for the reaasurance

That's good news gothic
