Is there a doctor or nurse surrounded by the house? Knee injury...?
I intend to see my doctor tomorrow, but I need to know if I should be doing more tonight. I lost my footing today and land hard on my departed knee hat. I came straight down, zilch twisted or bent the wrong direction. I suspect it's nothing more than a completely deep bruise because I be able to journey the half mile subsidise out of the canyon with little trouble. (The downhill bits hurt more than the uphill bits, if that vehicle anything.) Since I got home, I cleaned the abrasion near peroxide, and have be applying ice at intervals. I took 400 mg of Ibuprophen going on for 6 hours ago, no other meds. And I've been staying sour of it for the most part and keeping it elevated. It is currently slightly swollen, not much in the path of visible bruising, but it presently hurts like hell to try to put my solidity on it. (I'm using crutches.) Should I wrap it? Is there anything else I should be doing? I appreciate any lend a hand... again I'm seeing my doc for x-rays tomorrow.


Is there a Doctor surrounded by the house....blood pressure question?
I've been taking Lisinopril 10mg for roughly speaking 15 months. My blood pressure is generally within the 116/73 range next to a pulse of 56? My pulse rate everytime I test is or have never been more than 61. I'm concerned something like this as I am a smoker and to my knowledge smoking will increase heart rate. So if I be to quit...? My doctor doesn't seem to be concerned, merely looking for a 2nd opinion or input from someone who is qualified and not every wanna be doctor describing me that smoking is bad and will waste me. Basically, in a professional opinon could my dosage be to big? I take 1 pill per sunshine at about indistinguishable time everyday.
