my daughter fell off trampoline and hurt her ankle. It is either badly sprained or may have fracture. Too swollen to tell. I have to bring her to dr on Monday. I have been given apap c cod elix 12 to give her. I had been switching advil and Tylenol for her every 4hrs. Now I have this. They said not to give it to her for at least 6 hrs because I had given her Tylenol 2tsp at 5:45. She is in pain can I give her advil again now and the elix at midnight. Or can I just give her the elix now. She needs something. I think they meant I can give her advil then the apap at midnight. I just don t want to get it wrong.
HiT hank you for asking Chat Doctor. I have gone through your query. It is not good to give all the painkillers together. Injuries in the legs can cause compartment syn Chat Doctor.  You need to go to ER in such case. You can give Advil or acetaminophen (Tylenol). If pain is there after this also then go to ER. She might need an X-ray to rule out fracture. Local hematoma block and stabilization will relieve pain in such case also. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything is not clear. Thanks.
