Hit Head Hard.. Left Side of Scalp Numb
Posted: 10-27-06 16:15pm

I am in judo, I fell on my head pretty hard in class.. My head went numb on the left side, as did my tongue. The numbness subsided in about 20min, and it hurt alot for most of the day. I didn't black out, feel sick or anything like that.. It was yesterday when it happened (31 hours ago)... My left side of my scalp (left temple to the back of my skull) is numb still. And it still kinda hurts when I turn my head all the way to the right. I went to the university health center, and they told me that I was fine and that if I end up feeling sick for no reason or start losing vision, to go to get a ct scan.. So that helped me little... Any ideas on what is wrong with my head? My face isn't numb, I have full movement of everything still, it feels like the feeling when u leave the dentist after getting novocaine and it wears off slightly.... Any help would be appreciated....

i forgot i even posted this..

well, i eventually found out a few weeks later that what i did was bruise a nerve in my head, it didnt damage it enough to cause permanent damage.
how did it happen? my numbness completely went away in 3 weeks.

please describe as close as possible how it feels, and how you hit it and where on your head you hit it.

i'll be glad to help as much as i can
