 [ Symptoms ] what kind of doctor do i see to check for ms [ Disease ] i am glad it sounds like you came out of this with just a bad bruise the warmth probably is simply a part of the body is natural healing process whenever the body sustains an injury to the tissue it sends an army of cells to the area to repair the injury this cellular activity can cause the area to feel warm if this is what is going on the warmth should go away within a few days if the warmness persists it might be worth having your leg checked out by a doctor just to make sure you did not bruise the bone and do not have an infection brewing in there in any case if you start to run a fever then it is time to see a doctor otherwise try to keep the leg propped up and maybe put a little ice on the area use a towel between the ice pack and your skin leave the ice on for 20 minutes then off for at least 20 minutes hope this helps
