Pain after surgery of broken arm
My sister was operated for broken elbow around 10 months ago , but still pain is there and sometimes gets swollen. Went to dr. He advised for removing the metal strips from elbow as it is causing infection. He advised some medicines but I seek for a second opinion. Should the medicines be taken? or need to evaluate more. I have attached the prescription and X ray report
