Fainted And Fell Down. Shoulder And Head Bruised. Swollen Area In Head. Balance And Eyesight Changed. Concerned About Abdomen Pain.

Hello. Two months ago I fainted and landed extremely hard on my left side on a cement floor landing on my left shoulder and head (due to the pain from stomach issues I have). I went to the doctor and he seemed to only be concerned about my shoulder which was very bruised, swollen, and extremely painful, but didn't look into the large swollen area on the left side of my head that continued to become large and move around (though there was little swelling when I saw him - I have a tendancy of waiting until I feel it is necessary to seek medical consultation). I can't help thinking the fluttering sensations that I have in my lower abdomen, the nausea, pain that fequents around my left ovary, and the tenderness just under my left rib may be related to the fall. I take very good care of myself and feel that I am quite healthy. My balance and eye sight have changed significantly since the fall. I am mostly concerned about the fluttering and pain in my lower abdomen. Any thoughts? Please do not post this on the web. Thank you and I look forward to your response.

Your history of prevoius injury with swelling over the head two months back with your present complaint of visual problem and balancing difficulty sugessts that ypu may probably had small haemorrhage in the brain which did cause you much problem at that time and hence it would have been neglected . This old cllt of blood would have been increased in size now and causing this problems sl chornic Sub Dural Haematoma.so you need eufosurgeon consultation along with CT scan brain urgently. Your stomCb ache with past history of ovarian pain may not be related to this. You can take gynacologist opinion regarding this
