What Causes Pressure In Head, Forehead, Temples, Eyes And Nose After Head Injury?

CT imaging is not necessary at present
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
I have gone through your query and understand your concerns.
Head injury with the described mode is usually trivial in nature.
The danger signs of head injury are unbearable headache, vomiting, seizures , loss of consciousness, bleeding through ear, nose, motor weakness and visual blurring.
Absence of these features are usually reassuring about the mild nature of head injury.
For your complains you can take pain killers and local ointment.
You should be vigilant regarding above danger signs and symptoms.
You should consult a doctor again if tightness and pressure doesn't relieves in 2-3 days.
Brain CT is not necessary at present and can be done only if you are very concerned.
Get well soon.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Continue routine activities
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
You can continue your routine daily activities but better to avoid driving (atleast 1 week) as there is very minimal risk of post traumatic seizures.
It's rather a precautionary step than a actual risk.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
