Tongue Big pain from minor bump to the head... 3 1/2 years later

Love your company, everyone, but I don't want to post here anymore because- TBIs stink big time.

I'm very careful since the TBI 3 1/2 years ago, but this bump was when I awoke suddenly & hit the top of my head on the futon's metal bar "headboard". I keep a towel over it as a precaution, but it had slipped.

Now I have two towels & they're clipped in place. I'd like to throw the futon in a dumpster since it's 10 years old, cheap, springy, and I'm jammed between two metal bars (feet & head). But I'm almost broke...

It's been a long time since my last minor bump. How long does it take you for the pain from cranial pressure to subside? If this is still happening 3 1/2 years later, it may never stop unless I try some new medical treatment.

Thanks for your support!

Can't afford them. Thanks for the best wishes, though. Pain subsided after a while. Might be healing quicker from these bumps.
