Suggest Treatment For Bruise On Calf Due To Long Travel
My husband, age 62, has bruise on calf after flying overseas this week. It is slightly tender when he touches it, not hot. We have several upcoming flights over the next week and then 7 hour flight back to the states on the 30th. Should he see a Dr here in Ireland and/or do you have ideas to keep him safe during the remaining trips.
