If I smeared Head On directly to my other head, would it reduce the throbbing the way it does on your forehead for a headache?

So its beginning to happen more and more often, heres what happens. I will be doing something, anything, takin groceries out of my trunk, even just sitting on the comp chatting and a feeling comes over me, i begin to get a little dizzy, my temperature begins to go up, I feel warm and tingly, and then whatever im doing begins to fade away from my site and go into the background of some sort of deja vu feeling, like Ive been here, Ive done this. It literally almost paralyzes me when it happens and I dont know if its a seizure or what. Its so hard to explain but it started happening much more frequently and Im beginning to get worried, its embarassing when it happens at work and heaven forbid it happen on a date or something and its hard to talk about because I dont want people to think Im crazy... does anyone know anything about whats going on?

I was cut by a rusty nail outside, I cleaned it, put triple anti-biotic ointment, and I change the dressing more than once a day, anything else I should do?

Note: I have recently received my tetanus and meningitis shot.

Two months ago, I started having head pains/neck pains/muscle twitches/some numbness and weakness of extremities. I had an MRI which showed a dilation of the central canal of the spinal cord most consistent with a 'syrinx'. If you are familiar with 'syringomyelia' you know it is very dangerous, etc. Today I went for my first visit to a doctor, a neurosurgeon. He looked at my MRI and said this was 'normal' and just something I was born with and is not what is causing my symptoms. He said the 'dilation' measures about 2mm wide/4mm long. My question is, is it possible he is right and this is nothing to be worried about or is it just that this problem is so rare he probably isn't well educated on the horrific effects it can potentially have if allowed to progress? I do have a history of neck trauma, it has been about 10 years ago. Today is also the first day in 2 months that I have not had head pain and the muscle twitching is decreased by 75% - hopefully it will stay this way!

I fell down roughly 8 steps yesterday and since then, my head is pounding with a headache, my back is very sore but no bruising. I can walk and move my arms but my shoulder and neck hurt a little. My pain is not severe, but with all these symptoms, I am wondering if I should bother waiting in emergency for 12 hrs just to get looked at. I would hate to waste someones time.
