Dear Madam,

Thank you for posting your query on HCM.

Well looking into your query I will like to tell you that the chances are highly unlikely that it will result in some injury to worry about , although some pain and bruising can be there depending on the impact . You can take take naproxen 500 mg if pain and swelling appear if there is no contraindication for the same .It will help in healing and reducing the pain .

Take care.
