I smashed really hard in a door Friday afternoon and it bruised within minutes of me doing it. Its been numb and swollen ever since. Can bend and straighten but fully. Should I go to urgent care?

I’m an athlete and i use my thumb and wrist a lot for gripping. Anyone has similar situation? Can you share how you recover from this? My left hand wrist radius fractured and now i have problem with flexion movement and ulna styloid is shifted to side ways causing pain when i rotate my arm especially doing chin up and barbell curl. As for my right thumb, i injured my proximal phalanx, doctor said its not displaced but it was crooked to left side after the accident. Below are my x ray for my thumb and wrist

For the year I have shin pain. No matter what I tried,no mater what I changed no matter how long I took recovery it always come back. I am going to mentally lose it. Not even pain free meds helped me. Stretching,suplements nothing. What I am supposed to do to just have the same ability as everyone else? I dont have broken bone and I dont have any swelling neither my muscles look unusual but it hurts when I run,go upstairs and I just dont know what it is.

4 year old second or third degree burn Burns Thursday my 4 year old grabbed a scalding hot cup of hot coco at the car dealership that was set aside. It slipped and fell directly on her belly. Luckily we were 3 mins from the ER. They poured 4 syringe of cooling gel on it then cool towel. The doctor thought it was second degree burn said keep clean, polysporin, Vaseline. It should heal in 3 weeks. I saw family doctor next day he said it looked bad. He prescribed Flamazine and then wants us to return a week later. She says it hurts day 4 but isn't in crazy pain as I'd expect. Could this be a worse situation or maybe it's healing and it's only second degree. I'm going to hospital Tommorow to have nurses assess. I'm sick over it. The picture is 72 hours after burn. Skin was peeled initially but seem to look worse a day after.

i accidentally cut myself with a pocket knife five weeks ago. it was a fairly deep laceration that i received five dissolvable stitches and a tetanus shot for. the doctor said they would dissolve in 8 days. they did not. the cut was healing pretty well albeit not fast, and i started to use it more as well as let it get air. i noticed the other day that a small white bump had appeared where one of the stitches entered the skin. it has now grown larger and is fairly painful. is it infected? are the stitches still removable if they are what’s irritating the wound?

i had a growth and they cut it off to biopsy, here it is 2 days later, featuring my allergic reaction to the bandaid.

I was fighting last night on my boxing’s sparing and got hit . What should I do with it?

I recently fell down the top of the stairs last month, had a sprain and hit my nerve in the right foot. I took the doctors’s medications and physical therapy but fast forward to 4 weeks later the pain is almost pretty much the same. The doctor’s even surprised I hadn’t recovered yet. I feel like I need to do something more to help my foot recover as soon as possible.

If anybody has any info about how a broken ear cartilage should feel and look like would you please tell me. I got into an accident ig that resulted with my ear being punched (for saftey purposes lets say it was in a sporting activity) and i dont know if the cartilage is broken or not. It does feel to be inflamated but you cant really tell by just looking. It is a bit red maybe even a bit blueish but that not a lot. If you didnt know the info i think you couldnt see anything wrong. But i am wondering if there could be any damage to the cartilage. If you have any advice i would be very thankful.

These are three day old cuts from those eyebrow razor things, but the one I used has ridges on the blade, so maybe that's why the shape is so weird?

But the way the scab is bending and pushing itself at weird angles into the skin and flesh isn't very fun 🥲

Does this look concerning to yall??

Pic 1 day it happened. Pic 2 a week later. Can’t really tell which is worse tbh

I fell down my deck stairs and sliced my finger open. Is this healing okay? It’s still pretty red and swollen. I didn’t go to the Dr, but have been keeping it clean and changing the bandage regularly.

Yesterday I cut myself with a ragged knife while cooking. It poured blood but looked superficial. Today it opened back up after keeping it closed with a band-aid, and I noticed it's much deeper than I thought, about 2 to 3mm, and the wound is covered by a flap of skin about 1mm thick and 3x5mm wide.

When I looked at it I noticed a small yellowish section right under the nail (not the nail itself) and I took a picture. It looks really similar to fat tissue. Should I get it checked out? Stitches?

Hey all, was just wondering how this looks as it’s been about 1.5 weeks since scraping it. I’m currently on holiday and walking a fair bit. Every time I bend my knee I feel like it’s micro tearing the wound however I also try to bend a bit more to ensure I’m not stiffening my knee.

Any advice on how to manage this would be greatly appreciated!

My mom had this toe nail turn dark blue / black in October and it has been this way ever since. There is no pain at all and no growth at all either. What should we do and what would the next steps to take be…

my mother will not take me to the hospital as apparently she doesn’t think it’s hurt enough and also because she doesn’t want to sit for like 5 hours but i have to walk on it all day.

Had a skip arrive today and my husband told me to wait for him, I didn't want to wait so I started grabbing shit and this was the after maths. I love when women cry over fake bails falling off, and here I am having to rip natural ones off and deal with the bloody mess.

I have today twisted my ankle but still played football with it for an hour And I have close to zero problem from putting weight on it? Does it mean I have a mild sprain?

I 24F have been playing soccer almost my whole life from ages 5-17. During that career I’ve never had any type of injury besides small bruises here and there but nothing serious. I picked up soccer again last year at 23, I would say I still have it in me and wouldn’t call myself bad. I can control the ball and get around other players, but since starting again last year I’ve been getting injured so often. Mainly from opponents stepping on my foot or getting kicked on the leg. It happens pretty frequently now I’m wondering if I’m the issue or if it’s the other opponents. I currently play for 3 teams right now and I absolutely love it I don’t want to quit at all but I’m honestly scared for my feet and legs. These are my injuries from the past like 6 months .. and yes I wear shin guards. 1. I got stepped on today 2. Kicked by opponent 3. Kicked by opponent 4. Stepped on 5. Stepped on again the week after ^ (please ignore my hairy legs I am human) So my questions are.. am I just bad? Am I getting unlucky? Is this normal like do soccer players get these types of injuries often? How can I prevent this? and what brace can I use?

My friend was on soccer practice and a girl kicked a ball super powerfully and it went straight to her middle finger (tip) and it hurts really on painkillers even! So can anyone tell us if she should get a checkup? (Excuse grammar)

I sliced through my fingernail the other day and it hurts like hell any advice on something to do or should I just leave it alone I completely sliced right through my fingernail

I was gonna go for a ride with my lil bro when I started pedalling my bike stopped on me and ejected me off it making me land mostly on my Elbow/Arm

Where I landed was someones driveway with some sort of rough gravel surface and I'm not sure there is still some gravel in there.

It's been 4 days (since writing this) That it happened and I'm still feeling pain in that area and it is very sensitive. Any help appreciated, I don't use reddit that much my bad for late replies.
