Is A Squishy Knot On Head Post A Head Injury A Cause For Concern?
I hit my head on the motorcycle and had a knot on my head, i don t feel sick, don t hve any headaches, but it was a huge knot, now its been a couple days and it feels squishy almost like a huge blood blister maybe. I m wondering if i should try popping it thinking thats it s just blood trapped in there
It is a hematoma developed following a blunt trauma, which is nothing but a collection of blood underneath the skin. Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself. You can apply ice packs for faster recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
