Suggest Remedy For Severe Hip Pain After An Accident

My daughter is 21 yrs old with a bad back. she fell out of bed and landed on her hip. it instantly bruised up and she is in a lot of pain. I don't think going to the ER will help her, so I was just looking at suggestions to avoid pain killers and x-rays. And an ER bill.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain pain in hip due to traumatic injury along with severe pain can be due to either fracture of hip bone, dislocation,while in case if there is no fracture then there can be soft tissue injury leading to inflammation like sprain, tendinitis, bursitis etc..

I would suggest you to consult an Orthopedician and get evaluated and he can do a clinical examination and also advise you to get an x ray done to rule out for the type of injury that whether there is fracture or soft tissue injury so that treatment can be planned accordingly..
In case of fracture most commonly surgical correction of fracture is done..
For soft tissue injury anti inflammatory painkiller like Ibuprofen, muscle relaxant like Chlorzoxasone, cold compresses, and appropriate rest and physiotherapy is advisable..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
