Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is The Discoloration And Stabbing Pain Around The Fracture Area Normal?
I fractured my fibula in May. I was in a cast for 6 weeks and compression boot for for more weeks. No surgery was required. I still have skin discoloring around the area and a sharp bee sting feeling. Is this just normal healing or is this something I be concerned about?
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to normal healing. You should not be worried. I suggest using an anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
