Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Ibuprofen with paracetamol medication can be given to reduce pain for your 5 year old son. The dosage should not be more than 100 mg (5 ml) three times a day. Kindly take care to give this medication after consuming food and not on empty stomach.
Also, you need to continue to apply ice pack and give adequate rest for the body part as necessary.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
