I had a concussion in June from a back board hitting me in my head at work. i have about 14 seizures to date and now i am experiencing pain radiating with a pea sized lump on the right side of my jaw line. i have burning and there is a bit of balance issue. i am a petite 42 year old woman with(R) frontal lobe seizures that was aquired about 18 years ago.
Hi, Thanks for writing in to us. With a history of right frontal lobe seizures since 18 years, the date of last seizure is important. The concussion you suffered last June must also be evaluated in total. If your pain is over the skin along the jawline, the possibility of trigeminal neuralgia must also be explored. I would suggest you get examined by a neurologist and any soft neurological signs will be confirmed. This will help in deciding if a CT scan or MRI scan is necessary. This is important as you have balance problems. Any problem due to your recent concussion cannot be entirely ruled out without detailed examination. Hope this helps.
