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.
