Suggest Treatment For Swelling In The Leg After A Fall
I fell off from a mountain biking and the bike fell on my right leg. My leg got swollen and it is about 4 weeks already the swelling is about 10% now. I did not feel any pain at all. But the swelling do not go away. What medicine should I take for my leg to be normal?
If your swelling is still painful you need to take paracetamol and tab chymoral forte. If the swelling is not painful and very less when compared to initial days of fall, then you need not worry. Just elevate your leg using a pillow underneath and sleep at night. Don't worry, you will be fine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Suhas Chauhan
