Do ultrasound abdomen first
Need little bit more explanation or a pic , but when there is blunt trauma ( injury)as u mentioned, it will go with time changing colours day by day . Secondly if it is painful , then need to get investigations and imaging with USG
Assalam o alaikum... kindly upload pic if possible... is there any abdominal pain? vomiting? fever??? how is sugar control?

aoa i have read your question.i need to know few things regarding your father s general condition and also i need to look at the lesion . if you can take video appointment that would be much appreciated.it can be a simple bruise as well which can go away on its own but i need to see it first.thank you.
Please have an ultrasound scan abdomen initially, and then if necessary CT scan. get all blood test as well.
In the first instance get CT Scan or Ultrasound of abdomen of your father. Then make online appointment to discuss the result and treatment. By the way does your father take any blood thinner medication.
First of all dont worry,it can be possibly minor wound that might have involved skin or tissue just below skin(i hope he wouldnt be feverish right now and passing stools normally)
You need to visit any general surgeon in ur city after an abdominal ultrasound.
Bottom Line: Dont worry but seek opinion from doctor.
This requires examination and possible imaging investigation.
pic share karain

assalamoailakum please get it checked by surgeon
control the blood sugar level and other illnesses .looks to post traumatic sequle
What medicines your father is taking? Is he taking Aspirin or any other medicines as blood thinners? How is his blood sugar control? A picture would guide better about the status of trauma. Otherwise you can get an ultrasound of abdomen to check the status. May he gets well soon
sorry to hear about your father. i want to know if your father is taking any kind of medicines(blood thinners)?hows his diabetic control? that may be just bruise.is that area painful to touch?
get an appointment with me,i will guide u further
send complete history snd medicine and also pic
He needs to be seen by a physician...what ur calling a blood clot might be something else
go for serum amylase and lipase levels. If raised he needs to seek immediate medical attention.
It seems like a hematoma which should resolve on its own you just need to to fomentation hot or cold but consult if following things occur
1)if the size is increasing
2) if pain is increasing.
3) If there is abdominal distention
4) Difficulty in breathing
Get him physically examined by a surgeon as soon as possible
Is mark or blood clot on the same side/place where he was hurt....and is there any other symptoms like pain etc
in the absence of further details of injuries, current medications and comorbidities, I cannot have an opinion. best course of action is to see a doctor nearby immediately who I am sure would assess and give appropriate guidance.
it's better to share pic for better evaluation, it might b a bruise or hematoma. If it's painful, increasing in size etc need to be checked by surgeon.
My opinion is that you must control his blood sigar to normal level with hypoglycemic drugs.. The blood clot may be a underlying injury which need dressings. Must be seen by a surgeon..
Is he on any blood thinner.
send photo of belly button for better evaluation.
aoa. give him tablet Chymoral, one tablet after breakfast and one after dinner, for five days. He will be fine, insha Allah.
in case of pain, give one tablet Paracetamol, on as and when required basis.

Book an appointment on marham
You can bring him to my clinic on Wednesday at SCH 3:00-5:00pm or take him to your closest ER today or tomorrow, just to get him checked out. Thank you
seems to be a bruise ,if no signs of inflammation like pain redness and swelling nothing to do just observe , if any signs above said appear consult physician and also in history medication or previous illnesses will be significant.
Salam. Better to get him examined and maintain blood sugar level. In diabetics no injury is minor.
Seems to be a hematoma or just a bruise. Better to be examined just to be on the safe side. In the meantime focus on tight sugar control.
I think it’s like underlying skin haematoma, or bruise just observe if gets worse then to see a doctor in person . Otherwise should get better by itself
do Ultrasound
and RBS
then send me reports
get an ultrasound and monitor blood sugars as well, if this is not painful will subside, but if it increases and becomes painful can be drained.
go for ultrasound abdomin to evaluate that haematoma
nothing to worry
it ll resolve with time
How is his general health? Any health issues like diabetes, hypertension or liver problems? He needs to have a proper physical examination. Also needs to have his CBC done along with abdominal ultrasound.
visit the surgeon
physically check up
any hx of drowsiness or nausea vomiting
Need not to worry better to get checked if it does not resolve on its own
That blood clot is a bruise changing its colour.
Did u get injection tetanus toxoid intramuscular for ur father.
show to the doctor because he has to exam your father then it can be decided
