Have Knee Wound from Fall – What Should I Do?

Patient's Query

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road

Answered by Dr. Deep Chakraborty

I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.

Female | 46

Some conditions can be resolved through rest and physical therapy. Be sure to tell your doctor what you’re experiencing, such as pain or difficulty moving. Knowing the cause of the problem can help determine whether or not an operation is required. You must follow the advice of your physician regarding the most appropriate treatment for yourself.

She fell off on her wrist which causes fracture

Female | 54

If you fall and break your wrist, you may end up with a fracture. In addition to hurting, the occurrence of welling can be felt. It may be difficult to move your wrist as well. The reason for this is that the bone was forced to bear so much weight that the bone practically shattered. The first step to get it to heal is to put it in a cast or a splint so the bone can repair itself gradually. It's important to keep your wrist relatively immobile until it gets well.

I am 34 years old,myself and my partner was kn a car crash last year march. We have physio (thunk it was 8 or 10 sessions) I had stiffness in my neck but after the physio it was fine. Last month my left arm from my shoulder to my elbow really hurts,I struggle to lift my left arm up and sometimes I have to use my right arm to move my left arm as its really painful.

Female | 34

You may have adhesive capsulitis, which is also referred to as a frozen shoulder. This usually occurs after an injury in the shoulder has taken place such as a car accident for example. Pain and stiffness are common symptoms of this condition thereby making it difficult for one to move the affected arm or arms. To alleviate these signs try gentle stretching exercises coupled with warm compresses applied to the painful area.

I got little accident by scooty I felt 3 days before.. there is no more scratch... But my toe (leg) is swelled and bood clott got reddish patch and having pain.. please suggest me what to do.

Female | 17

You may be suffering from a blood clot in your leg as a result of the accident. Injury to the leg causes blood to pool and form a clot causing swelling, redness, and pain. This is serious because the clot may break free and travel to other parts of your body. Elevate your leg above your heart, apply ice, and take a break. When the pain persists or becomes severe, go to the nearest hospital immediately.
