Cheekbone Red And Puffy After A Hit And Head Throbbing
My 12 year old slipped on some ice and hit her cheek bone on the driveway. It is red and a little puffy. Her pupils are normal and reactive and no vision problems. Just complaining of her head hurting/throbbing. I gave her an advil. Is there anything else I should be doing?
thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the puffyness and the pain could be because of the impact or it can be because of the fractured cheek bone..consult a oral physician and get radiographs done like OPG.. I hope my answer will help you..take care
