Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I fell at my work yesterday. The doctor said that there is no fracture, but the back of my right leg is hurting. Please help.

Answered by Dr. Prathap

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

  • As you had a trauma, there might be a bone and muscle injury, leading to inflammatory pain.
  • You said that the doctor said there is no fracture. Did you take an x-ray? If not, then get an x-ray of the leg.
  • Until then, I suggest you try taking the following.
  1. Tablet Aceclo MR (combination of Aceclofenac, Paracetamol, Chlorzoxazone), twice a day.
  2. Tablet Dolonex DT (Piroxicam), once a day.
  3. Tablet Razo (Rabeprazole) 20, once a day in the morning on an empty stomach.
  • Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and start taking the medicines after their consent.
  • Revert with the x-ray report.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thank you for the reply. Yes, they took an x-ray. I am attaching a photo of the x-ray.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

  • The x-ray (attachment removed to protect patient identity) is showing no evidence of bone injury.
  • You can continue the above medicines for five days, after consulting your doctor. The pain will come down.
