What Causes Pain In The Forehead Due To An Injury?
Years ago I was in a automobile accident.. I hit the inside rear view mirror so hard with with my head that I tore it off.. Had double vision for approximately 10 minutes.. Never received medical treatment but now I m having skull pain in that area.. I also have a dent in skull where I took out the mirror.. Could the pain be a result of the injury and do I need to be concerned???

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with a tore on your skull following a hit of your face on the rear mirror due to previous road traffic accident I am suggesting that you have developed a lacerated injury
In view of this please see an Emergency physician for clinical evaluation of the wound and possible surgical suture and dressing of the wound as well as adequate drug prescription
Meanwhile please take injection tetanus toxoid and some antibiotics pending your appointment
I hope this helps
