Suggest Treatment For Intense Pain And Redness On Thigh After A Fall

Dear patient
It's contusion on your thigh due to fall. Do not worry. Apply ice packs to reduce swelling and inflammation. Start taking tablet diclofenac plus serratiopeptodase combination twice a day. Swelling and pain would decrease within 3 to 4 days but colour may persist for one month.
