Hi,I am Dr. Santosh Kondekar (Pediatrician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 5 year old son fell on a jungle gym play-set and hit his shin today. He cringed, but did not cry. He did not tell anyone about and kept playing, running all day today. This evening we discovered he had a large knot/lump and bruise on the shin bone.
We have been icing it and keeping it elevated. Is there anything to be concerned about?
Hi, Thank you for asking question on health care magic. If there is no fracture, for eternal injury you need not worry. You may give Ibuprofen for relief from pain and inflammation. Usually he will be normal within a week. Hope this answer will serve your purpose. Please feel free to ask any more queries if required Take care Dr.M.V.Subrahmanyam MD;DCH Associate professor of pediatrics
