Suggest Remedy To Get Rid Off The Pain And Swelling On Head

After a very stupid decision I ended up with a bump in the middle of my head, it is not noticeable by my hair. I play soccer and I want the pain and swelling to go down as fast as possible. There is not that much of swelling and the pain isn t really bad, just bothers me a little.

Hello dear,

The symptoms as mentioned in your post are due to the impact as well as accumulation of fluid & blood.
The blood cells accumulated are eventually broken down and absorbed in the body.
But this is a slow process & takes times to disappear completely.
Till that time, symptomatic relief is obtained by analgesics preparations (like paracetamol), ice compression & adequate rest.

If it still persists or there are any other associated symptoms like fever, vomiting, dizziness, loss of consciousness, convulsions, etc...then it will be better to consult your Doctor.
Under such circumstances, a proper clinical+ radiological evaluation will be needed to rule out any pathological cause for symptoms.

Till then, maintain adequate hydration & nutrition status.
There is no need to worry, you will be fine.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
