Hi - I fell down some concrete steps nearly 3 weeks ago and suffered from considerable bruising, a laceration through my brow that required seven stitches and concussion. My doctor says everything is healing well but my head still feels both swollen (tight and hard on the skull) and numb (on the skin). Is it normal to still feel this way, even when the wound is healing?
Hello, I have studied your case. Yes such symptoms can be common, no need to worry. CT scan may detect minor bleed or in fact so if symptoms persist then you need further investigation. Neurotropic medication like methylcobalamine 1500 mcg daily will help for improving focus. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
