Why Does The Broken Cheek Bone Still Stings When Water Touches It ?
My girlfriend got her cheek bone broken as result of an assault and it stings whenever water touches the skin. There is no broken skin or open wound. It has a lump underneath her skin on the bone I presume and her eye has started to turn bruised again
