Brief Answer:
Yes, the Ibuprofen(Not IV propean) is enough!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this accident that you suffered in the groin and scrotum. From all the information you have provided, there is no acute complication beyond the pains. Ibuprofen would be enough to control this pain and allow for the inflammation to resolve. There would be no need to change medications just by adding this piece of information unless another complication is detected. Your information doesn't suggest so.

If you think there are some concerning symptoms in the scrotum that were not there back then, please report them to me. If there is nothing beyond pains which are well controlled by Ibuprofen, you are good.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
