Hi lybrate-user,
feeling sorry for the trauma you are undergoing after the accident. Anyways, it is important to know the time frame of healing .meaning is how much time the wound take to heal. Normally the answer is 7-10 days in case soft tissue injury. However it might take bit longer if it is above moving joint like knees. You are doing everything correctly, do not worry ,wounds will heal fast. Also, neosporin is a topical powder which dries on the surface, and soframycin is an ointment (...more

I had a fall from stairs on 6th may. I fell on my back, left shoulder, left thigh were the impact areas along with both ankles being hurt. I could feel the maximum impact on left thigh (back side) and both ankles. Had difficulty in walking, but could manage. Had problem sitting, so used to sit with weight mostly on right side. Swelling on left hip, and ankles. 8 may- saw a blood clot of palm size on back of left thigh. 9 may- got xray done on both ankles & hips - all clear. 10 may - consulted an ortho online, who checked xray, recommended flexon tab for 5 days. And suggested cold packs. By 20 may I could start walking but still issues in sitting, could only walk slowly, could not lie down on left side, ankles still hurt. I feel my legs are exhausted by end of day. The clot disappeared but I feel my muscles (back of left thigh) tearing every time I sit. Ankles get a bit swollen by night. Pls advise - its been a month, I still kep changing my positions from sitting to walking to lying down. Left thigh muscles (back) feel like burning/stretching/tearing when I sit.
