Of course, its all a moot point really because he wont bloody go!
But is it approriate anyway? considering its not an injury per se. He is in agony and it is not being helped by ibruprofen and paracetemol. You now can only get diclofenec by prescription and that is the only thing that has even touched on helping in the past.
I think our minor injuries unit has nurse practitioners which whilst they can't prescribe meds can dispense them (soi if they keep it in stock) it woudlnt take much of their time and DP woudln't be in agony.
They have X-ray but really don't that would be needed, i suspect its muscular. it has happened before. Its just really to get him some decent pain relief.
He says he will do GP in the morning, but i can't stand seeing him in so much pain - he looks ashen.
