Suggest Remedy For Pain From Injury On Thigh
I recently fell against a bed frame injuring the middle of my inner right thigh. A large area around the injury bruised immediately but was never sore or tender. There remains an oval area at the injury sight that is tight and painful when touched but Is not discolored. I treated with rest, ice, and elevation for 48 hours and have soaked it in warm baths and Epsom Salt since. It s been 7 days. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
You have hurt your inner right thigh. There is pain, tenderness and tightness in the area affected. Such a symptom may be indicative of muscle strain, ligament / tendon / muscle tear, abscess, hematoma, fracture, etc. You are suggested to apply a thick layer of Ointment Thrombophob on the area affected to reduce tenderness, inflammation or swelling of a vein due to blood clot and help disperse any blot clot.
Take Acetaminophen or Combiflam to get rid of pain and discomfort. Keep the legs at rest, do not strain unnecessarily. You are suggested to get clinically examined by an Orthopedics, get imaging tests (X-ray, CT/MRI) done. Also get all other routine tests and investigations done so that the pathology causing you discomfort can be detected and treatment started at the earliest. Stay away from addictions if any.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
