Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you got injury to your hand due to fall on right hand . It may be soft tissue injury. For pain relief you can take analgesic such as ibuprofen. Vitamin B and C are helpful in recovering. You can keep limb elevated to reduce swelling. It may have fracture specially of small bones such as scaphoid so you are advised to its x ray done to rule out fractur.You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
