Is There Any Home Remedies To Reduce Swelling Due To Injury?
my husband fell down balancing with his palm while playing football. It caused swelling and pain. he could not lift his arm to eat himself. he was advised to go with casting for 2 weeks. after the removal of the cast the swelling slowly increased same as the first time just above the palm. Is there any home remedies to reduce swelling?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern right now swelling is not that much to worry but underlying cause of the swelling is more important, if swelling is there and increasing even after the casting then x-ray study is must, for your information there is no home remedy available for such swelling and never try it if ever available this could cause more damage better to see the doctor and discus the problem, hope this information helps you, have good day.
