My 9yo got hit in the cheekbone today with a very hard/fast thrown baseball. Didnt lose consciousness, never vomited... Put ice on it immediately.  Swollen a little, skin slightly broken, a little blue. Motrin knocks most of the pain out but still tender of course. Does he need to see doctor tomorrow or can we wait and see how it feels in a day or two? He is in great (normal) spirits but just doesnt want it touched.
Hello, Thanks for consulting ChatDoctorRead your query, as your child had injury now he had bluish swelling and pain this can be due to formation of Hematoma in that injured area I will suggest you to consult oral surgeon for examination of teeth and bone for any discontinuity or step deformity or if any intro oral laceration is present. Advise him to take soft diet, No hard solid food is to be given for few days, Do Luke warm saline rinses and consult doctor tomorrow for extra oral and intro oral examination and of needed to go for investigations done OPG X-ray. Hope this will help you. Wishing your child good health.
