Having A Mild Headache And Sinking Lumps After Head Being Hit. Is This Bad?

Hello. I was drinking about three days ago and i hit my head. I have two bumps surrounding what I can describe as a trench? I don t know if it s two bumps or if it sunk in on the crown area. Now that i felt it again, i think it sunk in. I m concerned because I heard it s bad when it sinks in. I ve had a minor headache since.

Hi,

Based on details you seem to suffer from post traumatic headache .

You require neurological assessment and may require CT scan brain to rule out minor contusions secondary to hit at the head.

Meantime you can have naprosyn for relief of headache.

I hope this will help you
