I hit my right temple about a day ago and it's still really hurting. It's tender to the touch and I've had a headache for around 20 hours. I'm also feeling on and off nauseous, and it hurts in my temple when I open my mouth. I'm still pretty cognitive though. I'm not sure what's going on. Any idea what might be wrong?

if you experience any of the following, seek medical help immediately: Severe headache that doesn't improve with rest or medication. Persistent or worsening nausea. Dizziness or confusion. Blurry vision or difficulty focusing. Any change in cognitive function, such as memory problems, difficulty concentrating, or confusion.Based on your symptoms, your doctor may recommend an MRI or CT scan of your head to rule out any serious injury, like a concussion or fracture, and to ensure there is no internal bleeding.

I've been dealing with pain in my lower jaw near my ear, and my neck for about five months now, and Im getting really worried. I first saw an ENT a few months ago, and he didn't find any infections in my sinus or ear. My dentist mentioned a few issues, and I got those treatments done, but he still thinks it could be a tooth fracture, and also suggested checking for TMJD or Eagle Syndrome. Meanwhile, my general physician thinks it might be trigeminal neuralgia. My symptoms include a constant burning pain in the lower jaw under the ear with mild swelling on the right side, ear pain, and a clogged feeling with a small lump on the side of my neck. An ultrasound didn't reveal any abnormalities, but there's ringing and a soft humming sound in my ear, especially when I lie down with the AC or fan on. My ear feels completely clogged at times, and theres sore pain on one spot on the top of my head above the ear, plus a constant feeling of something being stuck in my throat, and my neck feels tight and stiff. This all started back in May when I was chewing a lot. I'm thinking of going back to the ENT; do you think they could help diagnose if this is some kind of neuralgia or nerve issue? It's been a really tough time, and I'd love some advice on what to do next.

I'm a 35-year-old IT professional, and I've been dealing with these persistent brain issues. It's like my brain just doesn't want to think clearly anymoreeverything feels so foggy, and I can't focus at all. My concentration and mental abilities seem to be getting worse, and on top of that, I keep forgetting simple things. Even writing documents at work is turning into a real challenge. It's really affecting my professional life. I'm wondering, what can I do to get rid of this brain fog? Should I see a psychiatrist, or is there some medication that might help? I'd love some guidance on this.
