I got hit pretty hard on the left side of my head, right by my ear, and I've had a lot of pain. It even started bleeding, and it's still going on. The pain's not as bad now, but I'm feeling really dizzy when I'm just doing normal stuff. Is this something I should be really worried about? What should I do next?

The severe pain, bleeding, and dizziness after a heavy slap on the head near the ear suggest a possible temporal bone fracture, middle ear injury, or inner ear damage; the persistent bleeding from the ear is a concerning symptom that requires immediate medical attention; seek emergency care from an ENT specialist or a neurosurgeon to evaluate and manage potential complications, such as a cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leak, meningitis, or hearing loss.

Is there any homeopathic treatment for hydrocephalus that can avoid surgery I'm really worried about surgical options and looking for alternatives that might help manage this condition

hydrocephalus is a condition in which the fluid in the brain increases so much so that it presses on the brain tissue. if the pressure keeps on increasing, a lot can go wrong. the increase in the fluid can be due to over production or due to inefficient drainage. the only available treatment is by shunting which is done by surgery by inserting a shunt. you should undergo surgery ASAP. to avoid complications. no other treatment is available in any form of medicine.

I've been dealing with a neurofibroma NF1 for the past 7 years and it's been quite tough. I've consulted several doctors and they all keep saying that surgery is the only option. I'm really considering going through with facial surgery now, but I'm anxious about it. Are there really no other treatments or recent developments that might help before I decide to go under the knife?
