Tough Hop Off During Softball Play, Slight Discomfort While Swallowing. Will It Heal With Time ?
I was playing softball and took a tough hop off the from of my neck/throat area. At the time it stung but there were no issues with breathing or talking and a very slight discomfort when swallowing. As the night when on the pain has become worse. Still no issues with breathing or talking, other then slight pain. The real issue is when I swallow. I can manage to get liquid and food down without a problem, but the pain associated with swallowing is very extreme. On a scale 1-10 it is about an 8. Should I see my GP or a Specialist? Should I be worried or like with most bruises, will it heal with time?
Thank you!
