Is It Normal For Healing Bones To Swell And Bruise On Putting Weight?
I broken my tibia and fibia in a skiing accident 10 weeks ago. I still can t Stand on it (extremely painful at break site) my leg is hot, swells up if do anything with it, goes purple as soon as I stand up. Had DVDs but vascular doc says what do you expect given sevwrity of injury, feeling lowsey is this normal?
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief. If the symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedician and get evaluated to rule out conditions like malunion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
