Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My 13 yr old son came home from a football game with friends and was shoved into the bleachers which has caused a bump and broke the skin behind his right ear. It did not bleed much, but he has pain (7 on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the worst). It is in his hair line at the base of his skull but it is raised some and he does have a cut. When it happended he had blurred vision for 2-3 minutes he said but does not have that now. It hurts upward on that side of his head. I gave him 2 Advil for the pain in hopes he can get to sleep (10:15 pm) What do I need to do? Do we need to go to the emergency room ?
