What Causes Constant Body Pain After Falling?

Hello I have a question involving my fiancé. We fell from a hammock Tuesday evening ; unfortunaly it was not fastened properly. We crashed onto the ground from approx. 4.5 ft. His arms were above his chest as he reached the ground upper torso was first to land. He has been experiencing constant pain, but there isn t any contusion. I have not been able to touch him to see if there is any swelling or stiffness. Could he have injured anu internal organs?

Hello,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that your fiancé is suffering from muscular pain.Treatment of it is rest and analgesics (diclofenac three times a day after meals). Muscle relaxant such as thiocolchicoside can be added. Vitamin B-complex and Vitamin C supplementation can used to promote healing. It may take a week time to relief. I think he have not injured any internal organs. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful.If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
