Thank you for writing to HCM

I think that you have a soft tissue injury to the area which is causing a headache. There is also a chance that you have some other issue which is causing the problem.

These other issues can be a fracture or a brain injury. Since it has been some time and the headache is persistent, you can get examined so that we can confirm the diagnosis.

The best way to get this checked is to get an X-ray or an MRI if needed. This will help confirm the diagnosis.

Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Hope this helps you
