Muscovite did not notice how he hammered a nail into his temple

As learned “MK”, the other day in the emergency room of the First city hospital received a man with a complaint of severe headache. He said that the day before he worked with a pneumatic gun - hammered nails into concrete. Accidentally, a piece of nail flew into his head.

The first CT scan found nothing serious. However, the pain in the man increased, the drugs did not help. The patient decided to apply to the Pirogov GKB. When examined in the temple area, the man had a small abrasion on the skin, but there were no signs of inflammation. The patient was sent back for a CT scan. This time, experts found in the picture that a foreign object was stuck in the left temporal region.

It turned out to be a small piece of nail that doctors could hardly remove - it constantly migrated, "hiding" in soft tissues and causing the man severe pain.
