I have myself worried sick,
To Mark, I apologise for starting yet another new thread. Yes, I've had concussion scares in the past but nothing major. I woke up feeling really good this morning, but by the afternoon I found a dent in my forehead. It doesn't hurt to touch at all, doesn't seem to be the skull, just the flesh. It's also not too deep, but it's there. So, I went back to a new doctor again, I told him I have a dent from hitting my head and I've had sinusitis and post nasal drip all week, along with nausea on Sunday night. He's given me antibiotics and I need a sinus/ skull x ray tomorrow, to make sure. Could I have fractured my skull? It doesn't hurt at all to touch, but the sinus symptoms worry me. I don't know if it was simply sinus or if it's a CSF leak. Please give me some thoughts, because I'm very nervous about it. |

You are getting far too anxious. Head injuries take time. The symptoms will vary and come and go. Spending too much effort trying to get doctors to come up with the diagnosis you are worried about will eventually work against you.
Please try to relax and just rest.
