Starting in 2008 blunt force trauma to left side of forehead causing severe concussion. 2009 blunt force to mid forehead causing fractured skull right brow. 2009 blunt force to left chin area causing deep, wide, laceration. 2010 blunt force trauma to face and head causing right orbital blowout. 2010 blunt force tauma to right side back of head just below ear causing major concussion.no recollection of the 2 hrs that went by and still no memory of what happened to me. 2011 strangled to the point of losing consciousness on three separate occasions maybe more. 2014 car accident. Whole right side of head neck band shoulder slammed into dashboard causing long deep down to skull laceration on right brow. While sustaining these injuries, I have also encountered over 250 hard blows to the face and head causing dizziness, seeing flashing lights, to unconsciousness also traumatic jerk of my body causing blood clots in right shoulder. What damage if any could these injuries cause?

Thanks for your consultation at HCM!
I have gone through your entire history and keeping in view the histroy of various traumatic injuries my diagnosis is that you have got blood extravasated from the ruptured vessel which get collected in tissues at shoulder region(Haematoma)....
As far as treatment is concerned in most of the cases it get resolved spontaneously... If it don't and causing symptoms like pain it has to be drained surgically....
Now coming towards the second portion of your query that what damage do these injuries can cause? My dear it depends upon the severity of the injury ...you better get your CT of head and neck and MRI of head and neck get done to look exactly for injuries to bone and soft tissues for head and neck respectively...
Hope your query is adequately answered if u still get any feel free to ask.... Stay safe
Regards
