What to do if your cheekbone hurts

Clinically, different treatment methods can be adopted according to the causes of zygomatic pain. A. If a patient falls during strenuous exercise, causing soft tissue injury at the zygomatic bone and accompanied by local hematoma and zygomatic bone pain. In this case, local ice packs can be applied to reduce tissue exudation, oral blood circulation and stasis pills, massage and physical therapy to promote faster absorption of local soft tissues and reduce pain symptoms. Patients with hematoma formation need to dynamically review the ultrasound, and if the hematoma volume is found to be progressively increasing, surgical debridement can be considered to completely stop the bleeding, thus reducing the pain symptoms of the zygomatic bone. If the patient has a serious fall with fracture of the zygomatic bone, the patient needs to improve the local X-ray or CT examination as soon as possible to clarify the severity of the damage and perform surgery for internal fixation. After surgery, analgesia, edema and anti-infection treatment are given to relieve the pain of the zygomatic bone more quickly.
