Suggest Remedies For Pain In Upper Quadrant After A Fight
I have a friend who has been on a drinking binge for the last 2 days, at least. Yesterday he says he did a bunch of cocaine- amount unknown. He was in a fight today (I know this sounds awful) and showed up to my house. He's now complaining of 4/10 right upper quadrant pain, but it looks like it's more than that. Vital signs are OK- BP 130/84. HR slightly elevated. One episode of N&V- no blood.
Any thoughts?

Welcome to the health care magic
Here history of trauma present....
Hence it could be trauma induced muscular strain pain....
But internal bleed or organ injury also has to be rule out...
For that examination and x ray and USG like investigation done
If needed EKG done
Ibuprofen prescribed for five days
Hot compress helpful and avoid strenous work up
Take care
Consult pulmonologoist for examination without delay with keeping my answer in mind
