What Causes An Indentation In The Side Of The Head After A Blow?
I was playing basketball last night and got elbowed right between the ear and my left eye, i didnt fall or anything but it was a hard blow. I looked at my face and it seems to have a dent where i got elbowed at, i cant really open my mouth that wide, i dont have any insurance and dont know if it serious enough to go to the doctor. Will it heal? fracture?
HI Well come to HCM If the injury is serious then this need to be x-ray for a fracture part, but this can be managed with analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug and the best option would be Tab Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day if the symptom not improved then this can be investigated, take care.
