Question: What's happening, should I see a Dr..?
I fell in a parking lot yesterday. The flesh broke and I was bleeding. Oil got on my wound, maybe in it.
When I got home I felt sick(body ache to be expected), and now it's the next day and I still feel sick+ puking. My knee is red, super swollen, and it's SO hot to the touch. Should I wait this out.? I breathing is different too.(Can't explain)Health Question & Answer

Answers:
no, you should not. First, did you clean the wound.? You need to clean it well with hydrogen peroxide, then apply antibiotic ointment and cover with a band aid. Do this three or so times a day. also, I would go to the doctor...you may need antibiotics for an infection, a tetanus shot if you haven't had one, or some other medical treatment.Health Question & Answer
Can you bend your knee in every way .? If you can then its not broken if you are having difficulty then maybe you should get it checked, you could have sprained it or tore a ligament. You said you fell, does that mean you fainted or was it an accident .? Did you put ice on it right away for the swelling .?
If it is swollen start putting ice on it . Remember you just shocked your body, did you hit your head .? If the throwing up continues seek medical help and if your leg does not get better, please get it checked.
I wish you all the best.Health Question & Answer

~ Hi ~ Well, given all your symptoms you're experiencing and your breathing is affected you probably should see a Doctor. However, the first thing you should do is clean the wound thoroughly to guard against infection:
