Hi, I fill during a hike last Friday today is Wednesday, I cut my leg in the middle of my shin bone and its swollen down to my ankle. There is no pain when walking but it hurst a little when I touch the bone. At the hospital they gave me Curam 1g and Fucidin , I ve been taking it for three days now but the swollen is still there. What should I do please. Thank you. Yaser
Hello, I have studied your case and I think that there can be ligament or soft tissue injury of the ankle which has caused these symptoms. I would suggest you to apply some splints and do some rest. You can also apply hot water fomentation and volini gel local application. I hope these steps will be helpful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions. thanks
