Bump On Fore Head And Mild Neck Pain. Bumped Head On Glass Door. Should I Consult A Doctor?
Hi Yesterday evening I accidently bumped on a closed glass door of shop. The impact was quite substential. A small bump has appeared on rhe right temple. Slight neck pain .I applied ice pack.. There is not much pain but mild head ache only. I able to carry out normal routine including driving. Should I visit the doctor or is it ok to cpntinue with ice pack.
As it appears from your complaints that you had bump in your forehead after impact against glass door if the impact is not very heavy (that may cause laceration of the skull if it is very heavy impact) but minor then icepack and taking local measure like applying local analgesic ointment is fine but if the headache persists for days together you need to consult a Physician with best wishes Dr Chowhan
