It's generally not recommended to administer Vomikind syrup or tablets without consulting a doctor, especially after surgery. Vomikind, which contains ondansetron, can be helpful for managing nausea and vomiting, but it's crucial to determine the underlying cause of the vomiting and loose motions and to ensure it's safe for your mother to take given her specific medical history and recent surgery

I fractured a muscle in my right leg a few months ago and now Im seeing these dark lines on the nerves in my thigh. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be a serious issue?

The dark lines on your nerves could be due to bruising or inflammation. It is important to monitor for any changes in sensation, color, or temperature in that area. To help with healing and reduce inflammation, you can take ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Make sure to rest your leg and elevate it when possible. If the dark lines persist or if you experience worsening symptoms, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm currently being treated for a lateral femoral condyle fracture and wearing a long knee brace without surgery. Just got my MRI reports. Wondering if there are any specific exercises, suggestions, or special meds that could help speed up recovery? Really want to get back on my feet faster.

My mom is 62 and had a minor ankle fracture after slipping on stairs in Australia. The doctors suggested surgery with steel plates and screws, but I'm not sure if it's necessary. What are the risks if she goes through with it? Could this affect her ability to walk normally later? Her leg is in a bandage up to the knee right now, and I've attached the report for reference. Would love your thoughts on whether surgery is the best option for her.

ortho opinion is advised.
