How Can Painful Soreness In The Leg Caused Due To A Sprain Be Treated?
Hi, A sprain can very well be managed by conservative measures. Apply ice packs and take bed rest for few days. You can try analgesics like Aceclofenac and Tramadol also. Generally, the symptoms will settle and if persists, better to consult an orthopedician and go for an MRI scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
