Head trauma
Any one here suffer from a head injury?
I got slammed on the back of the head by a boat hatch about six months ago. Went to the ER, got the head scanned no serious damage. Went to see a doctor cause my head was killing me a few weeks later, he said it should be sensitive for a while. Six months later its still sore, and when I changed the oil today I irritated it and now have a head splitting headache.
Thoughts?

Concussions can stay with you for a while. Go to a doctor and tell them your latest incident. Maybe they missed something in the first scan or something else happened since then.

Nothing is worse than working under the car and lifting your head up a little and hitting it hard on something, then dropping backwards and hitting the garage floor! That's a double whammy and usually takes a few minutes for the cobwebs to clear up. That and tree branches bouncing off your head!  It's good to see just about everyone has done some damage, it explains a lot around here!
