No pain radiating down either leg really hurts the most when trying to stand from a sitting position. Using ice and heat both not knowing what is best. Taking advil about 400 mg bid - tid. My husband and I are supposed to go out of town for a few days this coming Saturday. How do I speed up the deep bruising?
Brief Answer:
I think you are on right treatment.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Madam,
Thank you for posting your query on HCM.
Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that in my opinion I think you are on the right treatment and there is no need for further dose escalation or addition of anything else . But i strongly recommend to get an X ray done because in your age there is a possibility of having hair line fracture exists that may not give rise to pain but there can be hematoma also .
So it would be good if you see a doctor else continue with this treatment for 3 more days . It will heal on itself . You can also go for hot fomentation .
Take care.
