I am so tired of looking for doctors in Spain, I didnt find anyone who do this yet. I hit my forehead 3 months ago and I have something caught between my skull and my skin, it is little but it is causing me some psycological problems. Endoscopic approach sounds good because the scar would be in the hair and at the same time I can make sure if there is something inside my forehead. If anybody can help me I can travel America or Europe because it affects me a lot. Thank you
