Is Mortin Effective In Treating Swelling In Hand?
I injured my hand by my knuckles a month ago and even though the swelling and bruising have gone down there is still some swelling, when I push on the area it hurts, I went to an urgent care center and got a xray and its not broke. What else could it be? All the Dr. said was to take Motrin for the swelling. What if another month goes by and its still swollen?_

Hello,
Welcome to HCM and thank you for the query.
Mortin is a good anti inflammatory medicine and would help it to heal.
There is no fracture but the other tissue is injured and it would take some time to heal.
It would be better in a month's time. So stop worrying and also do not keep pressing the area to check it hurts. This delays the heeling.
I am available, if you have more queries,
