Numbness In Back Side Of Head, Tired Eyes, Sluggish, Severe Neck Pain, Pus Filled Sac On Thigh. Any Ideas?

I woke up one morning to find the right back side of my head somewhat numb. I don't know what to make of it, but it is obviously concerning to me since i have never experienced something like that before. Then i noticed that i was sluggish, very tired, tired eyes. I took a nap and woke up with my neck hurting badly, that was probably from just poor positioning as i layed on top of layers of clothing and went to nap. Then this morning, out of the blue, i noticed what appeared to be like a pus or sac filled with liquid on the outside of my thigh. Any ideas doc?

Neurologist 's  Response
Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Numbness on the back of the head is probably due to mechanical pressure over the nerves in the skin (in that region). There is no need to worry about it, as it improves in a few days at the most.
Pus discharge from the thigh region is unrelated and is due to a local infection. You would need to take a course of antibiotics.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
