What Does Pain In The Skull After A Head Injury Indicate?
In December of 2016 I was in an automobile accident and they said I still have post concussion syndrome and since then I ve had spots on my skull that it hurts to touch. They did a ct scan a week after the accident but they said there was no bleeding what could make those areas hurt

Hello,
Pain may be due to concussion or re bleeding or scalp hematoma or subdural hematoma et cetera. If symptoms do not improve, repeat MRI brain scan, also use pain killers like Tramadol or Paracetamol twice a day for five days.
If symptoms do not improve, please consult your neurosurgeon, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
