Suggest Treatment For Swollen Eye Brow Bone After Injury

I work at a daycare and one of my children swung their head back and hit me right on my brow bone about my left eye. It was swollen all day yesterday and today it is still a little swollen. It is very painful if I move my eyebrow or make any facial movement. There is no visible bruising that I can see, but I was hit pretty hard. Any tips to make a quick recovery?

Hello,

I can understand your concern. The injury you have got may take some days to heal. You can do ice application over the area to have relief in swelling. In addition, you can take painkiller like Acetaminophen 500 mg or Ibuprofen 400 mg to have relief in the pain.

Unfortunately, there is less that can be done for faster recovery in such cases as the body takes it own time to heal such injuries. However, if the swelling or pain worsen, you should see a physician for physical examination of the area.

I hope this answer helps you. Thank you for choosing HCM. I wish you feel better soon.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
