Hand injury
My 3 and half years old baby girl fell down from bed on 24.5.25. Next day her right hand was swollen. We took x-ray & Visited nearby orthopaedic doctor. Doctor told no fracture visible in the x-ray. He could not find the reason. He told it might be muscle injury or bone injury. He prescribed shelcal @ ibugesic syrup for 1week and suggested arm sling pouch for 1 week. It's been 5 days still swelling is there in her right hand elbow. She can move her hand but she could not put her right hand straight, could not touch her face, could not touch her shoulder on that hand. On 1st 3 days pain was there but now she didn't complaint any pain. I have attached her X-ray report. Could you please what is the problem why swelling is still there? How long it will take time to get normal? Please prescribe the dosage of shelcal & ibugesic syrup as per her age and weight. Her current weight is 13.4kgs.
