Does Ibuprofen & Ice Packing Cure Lumps On Forehead?
I am a 72 yr. old woman in good health, except some arthritis and osteoporosis . This afternoon I tripped on a sidewalk crack and fell hard on my forehead. Immediately I had a golf ball sized bloody lump. It got hard (more like taut). I was close to home so I got an ice pack on it shortly. It is now about 5 hours later and it is still quite taut and the rawness hurts to the touch (ice too). I am getting a headache in the front of my head (forehead area). Will periodic ice pack treatment and ibuprofen be sufficient? It just hurts and looks awful. Thanks, Mary
Hello mam... you are going exactly right...cold sponging will help to resovle lump... but give some time to lump to resolve... It will resolve in 2-3 days...
