Suggest Me Treatment For Numbness In Lip,nostrils And Burning Sensation In Right Neck After Head Injury?
I was seen in the ER for a head injury on thursday and since then my symptoms have worsened. My head hurt even more than it did and I have swelling and bruising in the eye and nose area that I didnt have then and also numbness in my right upper lip and right nostril. I also have a burning sensation in my right neck area down through my right arm.

Hi,
These symptoms may be due to the inflammation that has happened post head injury. I hope your doctor had already put you on anti inflammatory and antibiotic. The symptoms will relieve with time. For now continue anti inflammatory drugs with serratiopeptidase to reduce inflammatory swelling, keep your head end of the cot raised while sleeping. If symptoms worsens get examined by your doctor once.
Regards
