There s a tingly feeling left side of my head above my ear; it feels like a coin had been stuck in there. It s not going away for 3 weeks now. I had been in a car accident, hitting my forehead but I do not see no relations as I do not feel pain, just discomfort. It hurts whenever I think of it. I also get nasal congestion when I sleep on my left side. Haven t been wearing my eyeglasses for that 3 weeks. No throwing up, no pain behind/above my eye. Started behind my ear when I got anxious, now right above it. I am only 22, fairly large. Do you suspect aneurysm? What do I do to find out? Thank you doctors!
Hello! I read your question carefully and understand your concern. In my opinion it may be just from anxiety or by local contractions of the muscles of the scull. I don't think it is an aneurysm, as they rarely cause pain and in that region you would feel throbbing headache and pulsating noise in your ear. The fact that it hurts when you think about it is another factor in favor of a psychological problem. I would recommend consulting with the neurologist, have a good neurological examination. If you really want to go on an examination to be sure that everything is all right, I would recommend an Anglo CT scan or Anglo MRI to exclude (with 99% of sensibility) a vascular problem. Hope to have been of help! Greetings !
