How To Heal Injured And Swollen Head?
I got jumped the other day, the night of the 14th, and apparently a friend told me I hit my head on the concrete right above the right side hairline. They helped stop them but now I have a soft spot on my head, it hurts mostly all the time. I take aspirin to take swelling down but it comes back overtime.. It's sensitive to where I barely touch it, I feel tingles up to the center of my head. I can't sleep as much and it hurts when I get a good yawn, even laugh which is a bother. I laugh a lot. I'm trying to stay positive but it just hurts to much to enjoy the days. Should I get it check out or am I fine?
