Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
hi
ideally it should subside in 5-7 days after medication, if doesn't then a review is needed with x ray and other tests,color Doppler etc.throbbing may mean some pulsating thing and aorta circulation should be explored with scans,Doppler.
waitf for 7 to 10. days, if continues, contact doctor and express my view
best wishes
