How do you get rid of a blood clot on the forehead?
Question:
Answers:
see a doctor
definitely see your doctor. It may need to be drained.
If the clot is that thick, the ossification (dposition of calcium) and hardening of the hematoma (clot) is definitely a risk, let alone the esthetical comsequences...
The usual procedure is to drain it under 2-3 cc injection of lignocaine with a small transverse incision in the skin of the forehead, about 4 milimiters long, and gently expressing away the clot.
A sligntly compressive bandage aroound the head, will be necessary after the procedure.
If your sister is very young and nervous, a tablet of 10 miligrams of diazepam, will be given about 1 hours before the procedure, and after that----Back home to be chacked in 5 days time.,.
I am pretty sure, you need to comment this with your physician.
Seek help, not to wait.
