What Causes Pressure In Head And Difficulty In Hearing After Injury?

I fractured my skull about 2 months ago. I am still recovering and am doing much better. A couple days ago I fly for the first time since my fall and since I have been having so much pressure in my head, as well as been more tired and having a harder time hearing. Does that have to do with flying or is it just a coincidence that I am dealing with this after I flew?

Hello,

Your symptoms could be related to the changes in air pressure. In my opinion, your situation will improve spontaneously. Anyway, if you have fever or persistent headache, I would recommend going to the ER for a physical exam and a brain CT scan.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
