    Sore spot on my head.wondering about it
    I woke up yesterday with a sore spot on the top right of my head. It hurt to touch it. It felt like I had hit my head but I have not hit my head on anything. Today when I woke up, the sore spot was still there but it was not as bad when I touched it. If I push down on it slightly it is sore, but not to the touch. I have had a mild headache with it, and my right teple as been hurting mildly also. Do you have sinuses that run up in the top part of your head? Does anyone know what this could be or has anyone experienced this before. My ear does not hurt but it has been popping once in awhile. So another thought I had was that possibly sinuses or the start of an ear infection, but Ihave had both before and have never had a sore spot on my head. Help?

    As far as I know, there are no sinuses that far up your head.

    If you've hit your head, and know what that feels like, and it feels exactly like that, then why can't it be that? You said when you woke up, so maybe, if you don't remember it, you hit your head in your sleep.

    It sounds like it's getting better. Until then, I recommend an asprin for the headache, and STOP pressing on it.
    If you are really, really worried about it, go see your doctor.
