Swelling On Bridge Of Nose, Forehead Got Hit. Anything To Worry?
My husband hit the rt side of his forehead on the ocean floor while surfing. Large abrasion and small cut and lots of blood. He did this 3 days ago. Now swelling over bridge of nose and rt eye with blood sac in corner of rt eye. Swelling worse today than yesterday. Any concerns. No pain but his neck is sore. Did not black out. No dizziness.

hello mam,
after having abrasion over forehead and black eye after trauma, swelling on second days increases due to reactionary edema.
do cold compression with ice , give him analgesic like diclona-sp which reduces pain and swelling.
i advise you to visit a surgeon and get proper examination done and if necessary get x ray face done to rule out any fracture.
take his advise and treatment.
i hope i answered your query
take care

Hello,
Collection of blood in the eye, subconjunctival hemorrhage is common following injury. Since you are not having any complaints related to vision no need to worry.
Subconjunctival hemorrhage is common condition and it resolves completely even without treatment over a period of 3-4 weeks.
If any other symptoms are still there like swelling over nose you need to consult doctor.
Thank you
