Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Secondary to a automobile accident on 08/03/12, I sustained a Stage 3-4 liver laceration as well as other injuries. Fx (R) ribs 3-8, (L) tib fib fx. My question is...what should I expect regarding the liver lac? I'm tired all the time, have considerable constant (R) side pain
it is best if you consult with a doctor, preferably a general surgeon, for physical examination and clinical evaluation. it has been years since your initial problem. your current condition may or may not be related to it. imaging, such as CT-scan, will be requested for further evaluation of your complaint. management (medical and surgical - repair of the laceration if needed), depending on the extent of the injury will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
good day!!
