Suggest Treatment For Cut On Forehead Along With Painful Neck Post Mild Head Injury
Hi I fell yesterday on our hardwood laminate floor straight down on forehead and have a half inch cut on forehead. My head and neck hurts all over. I feel crackling when i turn my head. Also my jaw hurts only when I chew. I feel really tired. Concussion? Should I go to er?
Hi.. Thanks for choosing HCM.. The pain is because of the the bone ie., skull.. They slowly will come down.. Pain in the jaw could be due to displaced lower jaw.. For relief you can open your mouth as widely as you can and move the lower jaw form side to side..This helps in replacing the displaced joint.. You can take any pain killer for pains.. Apply some antibiotic ointment for cut on forehead.If it is deep needs suturing.. Hope this information helps you. Take care..
