Any Suggestion For Having Bump/bruise On Forehead And Swelling In Hand/foot?

Two nights ago I fell down a flight of stone steps at a friends house in a half awake state on the way to the bath room. I was lucky to have no neck or spine injury but hit my head on the wall on the way down. I have a good sized bump and bruze on my forhead but no headache or other symtoms. also sprained my hand and foot with a little swelling but no pain I can walk but canĀ“t really use my hand although it is better today. Should I go to the doctor?

Hi,

If you are not able to use your hand properly, it requires x-rays and consultation with your doctor. There could be a small fracture.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
