Located on the neck ne er the corroded vien/artery. Have had Voltarin and applied the crime to the neck. Assume it is badly bruised but wanted to get an idea if I need to watch anything

Hello,
Swelling in neck post trauma could be due to hematoma formation or injury to soft tissues in neck. I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment of the swelling. In the meanwhile, you can take hot fomentation and pain killer for pain relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
