What Is The Treatment For Frequent Falls?
Hello I never used this before but I must ask you a few questions. . I fell on the tile floor in my kitchen 2 days ago really hard I'm in my mid 50's but pretty active however this is not the first fall. is it necessary to run to the hospital. I have taken ibupropin and ice it and keep it wrapped I used a walker the first day and most of the 2nd but I am able to bare weight more now..What do you think hospital or not just wait and see?

good day!
Geriatric age with history of falls always need a visit to hospital to be evaluated for any injury. SO please go to hospital and get worked up. And avoid future falls and take serious measures for that
good luck
