[|Human|] I have had a sharp pain in my elbow and can t raise my arm. Now my arm to my hand is swollen. Dropped a small plastic bowl on the elbow a few days ago. Have been in and out of the hospital for part of June and July with bleeding and had an upper gi and coloniscopy. Had cauterizing in upper and clips in lower. What dr. should I see and could this be related to my previous problems?
[|AI|]  Hello, From your previous disease, it feels like you have done both upper and lower clips which indicates you had some bleeding disorders. Kindly mention your past diseases or any medications on which you are going on. As many of them may predisposition to bleeding. What you might be feeling with right now may be related to that TO CONCLUDE:: 1) Kindly get an orthopedic consultation 2) Till seeing your doctor you can do the following: a) Kindly immobilize the joint (you can take a piece of cloth wrap one end over your arm make a loop get it through your neck so that when you leave your arm your neck will support it b) Can apply ice packs for swelling (check whether you hand had turned blue or not if yes got ER immediately as it may indicate bleeding c) For any pain you can take simple analgesics likes Ibuprofen. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
