| Abstract: | A thirty-two year old woman presents herself at your surgery with multiple bruising to her arms and legs and a black eye. She has no injuries apart from this bruising, which appears to be at different stages of resolution. Clinically she has no fractures. In the course of the consultation she says that this has happened before throughout her ten years of marriage and that the injuries were caused by her husband. She is concerned about her current injuries and worried that a similar incident may happen again, either to herself or her five-year-old daughter. How would you manage the consultation and follow-up? |
