I got hit in the jaw today by a metal gate that a cow kicked as I was chaining it closed, and now it really hurts to swallow, there s a lot of pain around my adam s apple, but the gate only hit my jaw, as far as I remember, is there something I should do for it? Thanks.
Hello, thank you for sharing your problem with Chat Doctor. As you got hit on the jaw by a metal gate, and it is hurting also and there is difficulty in swelling it means there is some injury in the jaw, it can be just in the oral cavity, or it can be in the bone also. To get it confirmed you should visit an oral surgeon who will take an x-ray and get the confirmation diagnosis. So better you visit him today only. Take care
