What is the cause of swelling on the top of my head after a car accident?
Patient: Good afternoon. Since my car accident a year ago, I still have swelling on top of my head, like soft spots, which are tender and a headache normally follows. I have been treated for this past year for a concussion by a neurologist. Today she said to take meds for swelling and thats it. I am worried. Doctor: Hi thanks for using HCM.Swelling after a injury could be encapsulated one with remained fluid with in swelling, presence of pus needs to be ruled out. Which needs surgical treatment.Not to worry first cause needs to be evaluated and treatment accordingly.Regards
