Suggest Treatment For Sever Pain In Arm
Hello, I have a query about my mother, she had a fall last year outside on some ice, she hurt her right arm and leg. The leg seems ok but there is a severe pain still in her upper arm, we have been to the doctor, she gave tramadol tables, bu that hasn t helped. Is there anything else you can suggest?

hi,
thank-you for providing the brief history.
As we need to know the age of you mother and also if any clinical pathologies like diabetes and hypertension are there which interfere in the healing process of the inflammation.
Since she had a fall on ice this could be a hairline fracture or just a ligament sprain. After a thorough clinical examination and x-ray of the region can help guide the next medical management.
Taking quick icing or hot water fermentation should help relief the pain and after which small exercises should regain the muscle strength back.
