Should I Take X Rays After Falling On Concrete?
I fell on concrete, hitting my right cheek. Very burised and was swollen. Still painful, but not as bad. This happened about four days ago. We were away on vacation. I am yrs old. Did not break the skin on face. Should I hold off or do I need X-rays?

If it is not hurting ur bony jaw movements dont worry u dont hav to go for any xrays.injuries on face bleed olot and show more swelling, but heal fast due to rich blood circulation. Take any simple painkiller and apply topical antibiotic ointment,
