Internal Scar Tissue on my leg?

Asked for Female, 27 years

My bike's brake bar entered my leg at my bikini line and slid along my femoral artery. I had reconstructive surgery and had to heal for a few months. It was a severe injury and now I have a scar on my bikini line from the top of my hip all the way to my inner thigh. I haven't noticed before, but there is a raised portion of my skin about 3 by 4 inches in size. It is above the area I think the bar entered my leg. It feels tough and is not like my other leg. The accident happened 13 years.

Dear Patient,

I'm so sorry to hear that. Is it like a Keloid scar? Can you compare it to images online and let us know. If that's so then they will remain hard and can only be fixed by reconstructive surgery.
