The applied pressure may have resulted in tissue inflammation. Discuss with your PCP whether taking NSAIDs to reduce inflammation and to treat pain is recommended. Apply local cool pack and then a heating pad to the area. If you experience wheezing, difficulty swallowing or breathing difficulty, please see acute care. The scarf should be applied loosely if worn.
