Hi,I am Dr. Carol Rogala (Emergency Medicine). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i hit my head against a concrete wall 3 weeks ago. Split my head open in two places. After going to my local walk in centre they glued my head together. The glue has come out and last night after a bath i noticed a sizable dip in my head. TO touch it feels softer than the rest of my head. Can you tell me if this is something i need to get checked? thank you
Yes, this is something you need to get checked. Your head is not a piece of clothing or tissue that can be glued. If you had split your head open in two places, then, further evaluation of the head is highly recommended.
With regards to split places, that are feeling softer, you should go and see a neurologist and orthopedist as soon as possible. You need a special treatment and not a "glue".
Hope it helped! Dr.Albana
