Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Why Am I Having Pain In Hip And Pelvis After Falling Of A Horse?
I fell off my horse a week ago I have been to my Dr and got an xray of my hip and pelvis and everything checked out ok, I am still having alot of pain and my Dr cleared me for work, they said I had some internal bleeding but never checked anything but the xray, I fell again tonight on the same area should I go to the er and get checked the pain is the same as I have been having.
The symptoms seem to be related to the contusion form the fall. I suggest using anti inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day. I also suggest using cold compresses at the area of the injury. I recommend to rest and elevate the area. If the pain continue you should go at the emergency room for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi General & Family Physician
