Numbness at the back of head after injury

I had a craniotomy last december because of hemangioblastoma.Now I require an immidiate liver transplant also because hemangioblastomas which are increasing constantly and covering up my liver.My brother was supposed to donate his liver, but this will cause damage to his carreer and hence out of rage he slapped very hard on the back of the left side of my head.My craniotomy was done in the right parietal lobe. Recent PETscan shows abnormal uptake of FDG in the posterior triangle. Now the problem is I always used to have neck aches, but after my brother hit me the back of my head went numb. Please help me out

Hi.

Do you experience any dizziness, nausea and vomiting? Any loss of consciousness? Confusion?

It would be advisable to have yourself looked at by a physician, especially with your past medical history of craniotomy as well as neck aches. A concussion, although unlikely just based on your lack of other symptoms, would still have to be ruled out.

Good luck.
