How Can Severe Swelling In The Right Eyebrow Be Treated?

I fell & hit my right eyebrow against the corner of a cement building. I fell total weight, also injurying my collarbone, breast & left knee. It s only been 3 days & I still have a black eye & severe swelling in the eyebrow area. However, the swelling has gone down around the eye itself. How would I know if I chipped the bone

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
The fall injuring eyebrow bone must have caused soft tissue trauma resulting in inflammation of the area.... theinflammation &pain in bony area of brow would not redduce had it been a bony injury. Still x ray would be the final diagnosis.
The swelling around eye would vanish gradually after turning it blue.. black &then
vanish with anti inflsmmatory pills over the counter,,cold packs on the area .
Consult an opthamologist to exclude any other problem with eye.
Thanks.
