Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you got injury due to fall of heavy weight on your thigh. It may be a muscular and soft tissue injury. Treatment of it is rest, icing and analgesics (diclofenac ). Muscle relaxant such as thiocolchicoside also give relief. Vitamin B-complex and Vitamin C supplementation can used to promote healing.Avoid jumping and walking fast. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care.
