How Can Numbness At The Back Of The Head After An Injury Be Treated?
The back right quadrant of my skull in still numb two months after a head injury. The emergency room CAT scan showed no brain injury, and announced it was just an abrasion, despite a HUGE knot, However, two weeks later I discovered that I had actually suffered a deep puncture wound at the base of my skull, lower right area.
Numbness per se is not treatable with medication and likely resulted from shock damage to the nerves branches, sub-serving the area of your scalp. Time may allow for those nerve twiglets to either regenerate or recuperate or it may be a permanent consequence. Most of the times things do get better.
