Suggest Remedy For Bruise On Thigh And Swelling On Face After Injury

I had a fall and have a very large bruise on my thigh and some facial swelling and cuts that required stitches. I also had some damage to my front teeth that required repositioning and a splint. I am due to take a five hour flight which will be 4 days after the accident. Is this safe?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
It seems that there might be having big hematoma on the thigh and facial swelling might be due to Contused lacerated wound (CLW ).
After 4 days every thing might have settled and so along with antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicines there might not be having any problem while traveling.
Ok and take care.
