you should see a doctor when there is any obvious bone deformity or misalignment of a joint; pain continuing for more than 10 days; an injury does not improve after 5-7 days; there is continued swelling or inflammation of a joint or injury; and if there is any indication of an infection such as fever, pus, red streaks visible in the tissue, or swelling of lymph glands. .
