Hello
Thanks for your query.You had a injury to your face and Dr advised some pain killers to you .However you did avoid to take the drugs reading the side effects,Please note that every drugs have side effect only if taken for a long time .That should not encourage you not to take it .It is essential to take antibiotics and anti inflammatory drugs for any injury any where .So take these medicines for a week to reduce the swelling and pain.
