Posted on Fri, 23 Nov 2018
Question: Hey doctor,

Last night about 12 hours ago, I was swinging my phone around near my head. I accidentally hit the right side of my temple right on the corner, I have attached an image exactly where and ever since it's been kind of painful feels like there is pressure there. I can still talk, walk and function perfectly fine I just have pain there is my only symptom I haven't tried any painkillers yet but at what point would I be worth getting checked out? If something major would of happened it would of happened by now overnight when I was sleeping I just woke up now?

Brief Answer:
need not worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Need not worry.

If there was a serious hit it would have left you unconscious or could have vomited.

The pain might be superficial and will subside over time.

You can take Tab Motrin 400mg if the pain is more.

Hope, I answered your query.

Thanks for that doc the spot that I hit myself in the image I attached as well that’s not really the head either right? It’s more so where the jaw connects could that be why it’s huring when I move it? Would Panadol(paracetamol) 500mg-1000mg be ok to have for it?

If I were to take Panadol now how long should I wait in between drinking alcohol as well? I was planning on going out tonight in around 8-9 hours?

Hey doctor thanks for the reply just another thing on a different topic I’ve been getting this ache like pain just below my upper right shoulder blade. I seem to get it after eating certain things like mayonnaise or egg anything fatty or if I drink alchool like last night I had two Vodka cruisers 4.5% strength and started getting the pain and I had dinner maybe an hour before that. What do you think it could be? I have ongoing stomach problems but drugs like PPI, h2 blockers and antacids don’t really do anything at all for it and I’ve had numerous tests including a gastrosocopy/colonoscopy, blood tests, abodmianl ultrasound, spinal and chest x-rays and nothing came up. I was reading up about lymphoma and alcohol and how it was related to back pain my friend had the same thing but in his left shoulder. Could this be a possibility and if so what other tests other than what I’ve already done would find anything? My friend had a chest x-ray and that’s how they found the mass but mine was clear is there one I should get of my back the pain feel as if it’s a headache in my back or a stretched muscle but all I do is eat and drink alcohol to cause it? I don’t always seem to get it with alcohol though last weekend I had no such pain. One concerning thing I just noticed this morning as well since I went out last night is that I just passed very dark brown almost black looking stools I’ve never seen anything like that either and I don’t take any medication.

Brief Answer:
Pancreas

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing back.

It could be related to pancreas

I would recommend you to get tested for pancreatic endo and endocrine functions. Also get an fasting erect abdomen xray to rule out pancreatic stones.
