Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Soft Spot On The Head After An Injury?
I was cleaning the floor when a big candle hit me in the head. My vision went black felt sick to my stomach. Layed down took a nap woke up my coordination was off mind felt fuzzy. Next morning same thing now have slight headache. Today i was very dizzy slight head ache some nausea when I move to fast. Noticed soft squishy spot on head . Is this something to worry about.
The soft spot is due to inflammation of the heated area. I recommend using ice compresses in the area. I also recommend using anti-inflammatory medication such as Ibuprofen three times a day.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
