Pain, Moving/Clicking Skull Piece, Learning Problems After Depressed Skull Fracture
 
I was in a car accident 4 years ago with my mother- from which I ended up with a depressed skull fracture that required surgery. I have had issues ever since, but have not made them known. I have always had dull pain on that (left) side of my head that comes and goes. There is a piece of either skull/metal that I can click back and forward with very little force (this has been getting progressively worse) and it sounds like it's crunching. Learning wise, I have no problem with memory but there seems to be something wrong with my ability to reason. I started to bring it up to my primary doc, but he was quick to say "that was just how it grew" before I got in to any of the specifics. Curious what your thoughts are!

Get a second opinion from a neurosurgeon, preferably the one who performed the original procedure.
