Fractured Arm, Bloating. On Medicines, Hydrocodone, Ibuprofen Taken. Advise?

I fractured my humerus bone, left arm. i have been taking hydrocodone and ibuprofen. what would cause me to be so bloated? Ankles, hands, stomach. Been trying to watch sodium,
I take other medicines daily, blood pressure, etc. Have not been sleeping much.
Feel like I weigh 300 pounds. Weigh. somewhere between 149-150.
Drink lots of water.
Did have 2 bloody mary's last night to help me sleep., But have had this bloating since I fell, 11 days ago.
Any ideas?

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Since your humerus bone has broken, it needs proper immobilization and cast application after proper reduction and internal fixation of the fractured fragments. Do consult an orthopedician.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
