I've been nursing a bump on the back of my head for a few days now, after slipping in the bathroom and hitting a tiled wall. I've noticed the swelling is almost gone, but the area still hurts when I touch it. Should I be concerned about a potential internal injury or is it pretty normal for this kind of thing? Would love some advice on whether it's wise to get it checked out.

Misoprostol administration: You've taken 600mcg of Misoprostol.

Ultrasound findings: Remaining products of conception (POC) detected.

Next Steps

Consult a healthcare provider: Discuss your situation with a doctor or obstetrician.

Surgical management: Consider a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure to remove remaining POC.

Medical management: Alternatively, your healthcare provider may prescribe additional Misoprostol or other medications to help expel the remaining tissue.

Follow-up ultrasound: Schedule a follow-up ultrasound to ensure the uterus is empty and the abortion is complete.

Important Considerations

Infection risk: Incomplete abortion can increase the risk of infection. Monitor for signs of infection, such as fever, chills, or heavy bleeding.

Bleeding and cramping: Expect some bleeding and cramping during the completion of the abortion process.
