Report

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.

Dear lybrate-user
after consumption the poison effect will depend upon the quantity of fluid drunk. Since the quantity is 3 ml, a normal mouth rinse and drink lots of water immediately. If you feel any restlessness, vomitting, dizziness, please contact the nearest hospital for further treatments.

Do not take painkiller tablets too much. Diclofenac can cause upper gi bleed. To rule out faciomaxillary fractures, get an ncct face done. For redness in eyes use folowing medications:
k-fresh eyedrops 2 drops 3 times a day.
Moxicip eyedrops 2 drops 4 times a day.
Oint. Occupol around the eyes.
