What Medication Is Suggested For Moderate Sized Cut On Knee And Ankle?
I just fell on some brick stairs outside my house. It was very painful and i have a moderate sized cut on my knee and my ankle. However, about 2 minutes after falling i began to get dizzy and i quickly sat down, then i began to zone out and i heard a buzzing noise...i became queasy and very tired....this went away after about 5 mins, but after taking a long nap i woke up and walked downstairs and the same thing occurred again. What should i do?

Hello,
If the wound is minor and superficial you can apply topical antibiotics like mupirocin after cleaning with soap and water. If there is major tissue loss or wound is deep, suturing is required. Consult a general practitioner and he will direct you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
