    Measured it tonight it is 4.5"x7". I am not sure it is serious enough to drain, it is pretty large but the swelling has all but gone away. It was scary yesterday morning because obviously the blood had spread overnight (Tues-Weds) but I am pretty sure it is not the level of the one my husband almost needed drained. I did some heat compression tonight to help the circulation. Here is a photo of my hideous thigh, um yeah it isn't super model fit..... The round red scrape part in the middle is all I saw before going to bed Tuesday, it was swollen there but I had no idea it was going to be that big. I bruise easily but this is pretty out of the ordinary. And it was far from my worst wreck at all.
