He took quite a punch to the side of his face yesterday at his bout.
He's now at A&E.
He blew his nose when leaving work and his eye 'popped'
According to his brother (who works beside him) he thinks they might have to make an incision to let the blood out under his eye.
A work-mate told me it was really quite freaky (thanks for that)
Won't know much more til he gets home, I reckon weakened blood vessels?
He's just home and is sporting a stoater of a black eye.
Hossie want him back up in 4 weeks time to check on progress.
He's not in pain (thankfully)
They reckon it's air and not eye fluid (ugh!!) They gave him a CT to check him out, so all is well at the moment.
It looks frightening....but no big deal,
Air in the orbit following a blow to the face and nose blowing is not uncommon.....it indicate s fracture of one of the orbital bones (usually the ethmoid).
Antibiotics and reassurance and all will be well.
Wolfie, funnily enough, they found a 23 year old brain inside a 23 year old body :-)
All is good on that front.
Sqadlet, thank you xx
He says he's in no pain and it looks worse than it is.
An absolute cracker of an eye this morning tho.
I like the ~Doc who saw him yesterday, advice was 'don't blow yer nose for 4 weeks til we see you again, but any concerns, get straight back here'
