Last Friday I twisted my leg and it's been hurting a lot since then. There's some swelling too. I'm pretty worried about it. Could you recommend some treatment options or suggest a good doctor I could see for this?

X-ray of the leg AP and oblique viewis advised since swelling is present, and an orthopaedic opinion is advised to the patient.

Question

After a leg fracture, how long before someone can start playing sports again? My friend was advised to take a break for 4 weeks. Is that usually enough time?

I was playing badminton for a short time and then hurt myself while picking up a shuttlecock. I might have sprained my ankle. After that, I walked for a couple of minutes and suddenly felt nauseous and fainted. Why do you think this happened?

Question

I was in an accident a couple weeks back and got some injuries on my elbow, forearm, and knee. Initially, my knee swelled up, not exactly where the injury was, but close by. All the injuries have healed now, but there's still swelling in that spot. I'm concerned whether it's just swelling or maybe some blood clotting. I couldn't bend my knee before, but now I can, although there's still some pain where the swelling is. Could you give me some advice on what's going on?
