Hi,I am Dr. Carol Rogala (Emergency Medicine). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yesterday, i slipped and fell while walking, and scraped my knee pretty badly. I wanted to know if i should continue to go to indoor tanning? I had went several times already before the injury, but am concerned now if there may be some side effects to tanning while i have this cut. Please give me some advise on whether i should keep going or wait until the cut heals to continue my tanning sessions. Thank you.
you need to give some rest as well as medication for the injury you sustained on knee joint as it is the weigh bearing joint. Take anti-inflammatory and vitamin c .When the joint is painless you can continue actively with all your activities.....tc care.
