I fell down 6 carpeted steps 3 weeks ago.  My muscles are still very sore.  I now have a lump on the right side of my head and it hurts when I touch it and i keep getting awful pains in that area.  It was so bad last night that I was in tears and almost had my husband take me to the ER.  Ice seemed to help, but it has returned this morning.  I am nervous because Ive had headaches/migraines/sinus headaches before and this is nothing that I have ever felt before.
Hello! Thank you for the query. The pain and lump indicate that you have an abscess on the head. It can be caused by recent injury which has caused some blood collection under the skin. Now this blood has turned into abscess. You may have a fever with this issue especially in the evening. Please do not wait with it and consult your doctor as soon as possible. The abscess needs to be incised and pus Chat Doctor. Hope this will help. Regards.
