Ihuman case: History Of Present Illness (PUT IN IHUMAN!!!!)
Andrew Chen is a 14-year-old male patient who presents to the clinic with his father with complaints of pain, bruising, and swelling in his right ankle. He was playing in an intense basketball game last night when he drove for a layup, in turn, stepping on his opponent’s foot and falling. When he tried to get up, he had a pile of people on top of him. He had his trainer look at his ankle and wrap it with an ACE wrap when it happened. He took the ACE wrap off last night in order to shower and forgot to put it back on. He did ice and elevate his leg when he laid down. He says the bruising and swelling have both increased since the initial injury. He is unable to bear weight at this time due to the pain. He states the pain feels like someone is stabbing him at times and rates it a 10/10 when he tries to move his foot. There are no associated signs as he only complains of the pain from the ankle injury. He took Ibuprofen last night with some relief and again this morning about an hour ago.
