Suggest Treatment For A Lump Caused Due To A Head Injury

I hit my head (above my left ear area)really hard on a metal object. It was very, very painful. I noticed a bump appeared after and it hurt a lot. Ever since then, I have been waking up feeling nauseaus in the morning. I am not pregnant. I was wondering if there could possibly be a link between the two.

Hi! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query. The bump on your head might be simply a bruise caused due to the hit. This needs to be examined clinically in person to be sure especially if it expands. In case the nausea sensation persists or increase, along with any kind of increaed drowsiness, then you must report urgently to the ER of your nearest hospital for a possible CT scan of your head. Till then, you could go for an anti inflammatory and a proton pump inhibitor drug for a symptomatic relief.

I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts.

Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Dr Shareef
