Hello 2 days ago I got myself in trouble and got myself injured while jumping. Though no bone injury but there is swelling and numbness in my right leg( lower side). Kindly let me know how long it would take to get rid of this numbness and swelling. I am taking prescription medication.

May be some soft tissue injury and as you complaint is numbness also so may be nerve involvement but without assessment we can't find the actual cause
Next Steps
Need to consult with physiotherapist or orthopedic
Health Tips
Avoid hanging position of legs and avoid bending of spine and all aggravating activities
