Could Tenderness And Swelling In Eyebrow Bone After Hitting Indicate Fracture?

i fell & hit my right eyebrow & just above it on a door handle. My entire right eye is black & blue but my eyebrow is not.My eyebrow bone is very sensitive to touch and it is only slightly swollen (no one can tell it is swollen but me). Do you think my eyebrow bone is broken? This happened 3 nights ago.

Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to an inflammation due to the injury. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
