Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms seem to be related to the injury.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the symptoms.
I also suggest using cold compresses in case of swelling.
I recommend rest and avoid activities that can trigger the symptoms.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
