To reduce swelling after a hit to the jaw or cheek, apply a cold pack or ice wrapped in a cloth to the affected area for 15-20 minutes every hour as needed. This helps constrict blood vessels and reduce inflammation. Additionally, keeping your head elevated can minimize swelling, and over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications may also provide relief. If swelling persists or worsens, seek medical attention.

Is ice good for a wasp sting?

As a form of ice, yes. Ice will reduce the swelling. A trick I've heard of and used on several occasions is to sterilize a penny and tape it to the sting. The copper in the penny reduces the swelling and at the end of the day, almost looks like you never got stung.

What do you do if you got hit with a air hockey puck in the hand?

If you get hit with an air hockey puck in the hand, first assess the injury for any swelling or bruising. Apply ice to the area to reduce swelling and alleviate pain. If the pain persists or if there is significant swelling, consider seeking medical attention to rule out any fractures or serious injuries. Rest the hand and avoid using it until it feels better.


Why is your cheek swollen after a root canal?

Hi, I am having this problem right now. I went to my dentist, he put me on antiboitics that are stronger. In my case it is bacteria that went into the facial tissue and sinus. Not fun at all, and I look like a chipmunk. I thought that was normal until I called him. Go see your dentist, or specialist. When I went for a visit today he also opened the tooth and got whatever else was there. He said with the anitboitics it can take a few days to start going down, and a week for the swelling to go down all together.
