[|Human|] A friend of mine fell off a high ladder while putting up the Christmas Tree. She fell off, and hit the couch and bounced off that and hit something else. Her left leg swole up some and is in a lot of pain. She has been putting pain patches on it however this being the 4 or 5th day, she is still in a lot of pain, and insists that it will just take time for the pain to go away. She can t stay off the leg too much because of the work she does. She tries to elevate it when she can. What can she do to relieve the pain in her leg?
[|AI|]  Hello, Your friend may have a muscle injury or a mild fracture if she had a hard hit. She should do following to have relief:- If possible get an x-ray done to rule out any bone injury-Apply an Ace bandage over the leg from below upward, from foot to above the knee.-Do not rub that area-Take a good analgesic like paracetamol or diclofenac on prescription with your doctor Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
