Have busted ankle (fell out of back door this morning, naked into garden ).Its very painful and swollen and I would like to take some painkillers.

At moment though I am on antibiotics (amoxicillin) and steriods (prednisolorone (sp?)) as well as becotide and ventolin inhalors and not feeling too good on them at the moment. I became very disorientated after I fell and dp thought I must have banged my head (Which I didn't) - couldn't stand, went deaf, things went black (though I didn 't actulaly pass out).

So I really don't want to take painkillers unless I know they are ok, but I am in quite a lot of pain. SO anyone know or know where i can find out?
