Can Drugs Cause Bruises On Head?
I was getting a haircut and noticed a decent sized, round bruise on the back of my head on the left side. I am only worried because I am prescribed a lot of different medicines; some of which include hydrocodone and tramadol. Can these drugs cause a severe problem with my head?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Neither of these medications would cause a lesion to appear on your head or scalp.
They are both associated with the potential for dizziness or drowsiness but would not cause a visible lesion.
It may be rash that you have noticed that needs treatment, your doctor would be able to assess this for you.
I hope this helps
