Child, Bleeding Nose, Chipped Tooth, Swelling, Pain After Getting Hit. Taking Ibuprofen, Applying Ice. Recommendations?
My son was hit (accidently) in the nose by another kids forehead at school.
My son started with a bloody nose, chipped tooth and a lot of pain, I gave him ibuprofen for the pain and ice. His nose, upper cheek and part of eye is swollen now. No problems with mouth. Should I be concerned or watch for other symptoms?
