Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Head And Collar Bone
A week ago I fell backwards and hit my head really hard on a wooden pole. Went to urgent care and they prayed my collar bone to see if it was broken. It wasn t. Now my head hurts and so does my collar one. They said it was the muscles not my bone. What can I do?
A headache and pain in your collarbone are related to the trauma that you had.
I suggest you take painkiller drug (Ibuprofen twice daily ) and Acetominofen+Codeine phosphate twice daily for some days, until pain reliefs.
However, if you have other symptoms like nausea, vomiting, dizziness, or any other problem, I suggest you go to the Emergency Room for a physical examination and some blood analysis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Suela Gjata, General & Family Physician
