How To Get Rid Of Bruise On Forehead?
My whole forehead feels like a bruise. I just went to lie down and touched my forehead near my scalp and it was tender to the touch. Right above the middle of the left eyebrow closer to the scalp to the right eyebrow end. Can this be a serious matter related to a brain emergency?

Hi.
As per your case history of bruise on forehead, my treatment advice is -
1. Don't worry, the symptoms suggest only superficial damage. So don't think about brain injury.
2. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen for pain and swelling for 5-7 days.
3. Apply a diclocenac gel twice daily on it.
If problem persists then consult a dermatologist.
Thanks.
