What Causes Pain In The Forehead On The Left Side?
I have bone pain on the left front side of my forehead. I m 66 years of age, female and have not sustained any injury. It hurts only when pressed or rubbed firmly with my hand I don t have a headache but it feels like a bruise when pressed. The area looks mildly swollen. Should I just remain observant for the time being? Many thanks
Your symptoms seem to be related to migraine. I suggest using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen and get rest. If the symptoms continue I suggest seeing a neurologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
