Suggest A Remedy For A Big Bump On Head Post Injury

Good evening, my mother is 78 years old and tonight she lost her balanced, fell and hit her head in the corner wall and end up with a big bumped in her head. We put ice for 25-30 minutes and I took her blood pressure 137/76. She s not dizzy and only little pain. What do we need to do?

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The pain and lump could be because of the inflammatory reaction following trauma. The other possible cause can be a fractured bone. Nothing to be panic, consult a general physician and get it evaluated. You need to get a radiograph done to confirm the diagnosis. Mean while you can take an analgesic like diclofenac with an antiinflammatory drugs like serratiopeptidase(if you are not allergic).
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
