What Causes The Eye To Twitch After Accidentally Dropping Object On Head?
I was putting away groceries this morning and as I was placing a 2 liter bottle on the top shelf in our pantry, it fell off and hit me in the head. I didn't pass out or anything. It has a small bump there, looks a little bruised. But my concern is my eye twitching. Is this normal?
Welcome to HCM and thank you for your query I understand your concern. Since you did not pass out or have headache with vomiting, there is nothing to worry. No injury to the brain has occurred. The bump on the head is only in the scalp. The twitching of the eye is called 'myokymia'. It is normal and can occur when one is tired or stressed. So relax and have a good day Dr Noble Zachariah
