General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to the injury.

I suggest using painkillers such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain.

I also recommend using ice compresses for local application for fifteen minutes.

The symptoms will go away on its own gradually.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
