Can Pain In Forehead And Dizziness Be Due To A Fall?

The day before Thanksgiving - over a month ago I was jogging and fell, hitting my forehead and nose on the asphalt. Recently I have been having sharp, although infrequent, forehead pains in various areas across my forehead and I have also been having mild dizzy spells. Does this sound like it's all related to the fall? I am 8o years old and a marathoner.

Hello there!
History of falls have always these associated symptoms when head is involved. So yes odds for involvement are pretty high. but surety will be only after confirmed by examination and ruling out other etiologies for these symptoms. Otorhinolaryngologist to consult and see what happens.
Good Luck
