Titanium Plat On Left Side Of Head

About four years ago I got into a car accident, hit my head on the review mirror, and ended up pitting a titanium plate on the left side were I cracked in my skull.

My question is that when I place my hand on the plate area, and move my hand I'm a slow circular motion, I hear and feel Snap crackle and popping noise's. Is this normal?

Thank you for the advise. The feeling/noise has been there since the surgery.... I'm pretty sure. But just to ease my mind I'm gonna make an appointment with a Nero.

Of all the places I had to get a plate in my head to protect my brain. I would have rather had a plate in my leg. Umfortunetly this is not the case and brain protection is extremely important!

Quick question Mooks mom...... The that mean your Murder Mook the rappers mom?

IF the noise is new, and it was my titanium plate, I'd have my doctor take a look at it and handle the treatment, if any. It could be nothing at all, but I look at it this way: the brain is covered by the plate and you want to do all you  can to protect the brain.
