What causes numbness in the head after a head injury?
Patient: Hi. I was in an car accident on 1-1-2017, of all days! First time going out. The car tire slipped on a patch of ice and the car spun then slammed into the rails. I was on the passenger side but I hit my head on the window. My head has been feeling strange in that one spot. I was told by my Dr. that I should be okay and the numb feeling will eventually got away within 2 to 3 months. It's been longer than that now. What does this sound like to you? Doctor: Hi, thanks for asking from HCM.I can understand your concern. The numbness could be due to nerve injury or concussion. It will subside on its own. If no relief at all, you should- Take tablet Pregabaline after prescription- take nerve specific vitamin like B12, folic acid, pantothenic acid.Hope it will help. Thanks. Take care.
