What Causes Pressure On The Left Side Of The Head Years After Injury?
Hi, I have a recurring problem. 5 years ago I was thrown from my horse and had a hematoma on the left side of my head up by hairline. Only lasted a few days and never had anymore problem about a year and a half ago I started getting pressure there (not really a headache) worse when straining bending last about 6 mos and went away for a year or longer. Now it is back again but seem to have the symptom all the time. Annoying and more like pressure or my skin being really tightened in the area.

What Causes Pressure On The Left Side Of The Head Years After Injury?
Hello, As first-line management, you can take analgesics like paracetamol or aceclofenac for pain relief. If symptoms persist you can consult a physician and plan for an MRI scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
