Strange feeling in head, Mild discomfort. help please :)

I should mention im not prone to headaches.
I did hit my head pretty hard on an engine liftin the general area but that was almost 3 weeks ago. No reason it would start hurting now right?

There is a principle known as Occam's Razor, simply put it is that the simplest answer is most often correct. Although one cannot capriciously apply this to any type of physical symptom, and discussing concerns with a doctor is the best thing to do, I just wanted to show you what's up there besides the brain.

I'd start here. Gives you some idea what's up there.

There are many things in the area you mention. Nerves, muscles, connective tissues, etc. Please don't assume the worst simply because you have pain in that area. If you're concerned, if symptoms worsen, or new symptoms arise, please consult with a doctor.

Have you tried Ibuprofen or similar medication?

The brain itself is insensible to pain. Incredibly it doesn't have the nerve endings for pain.

It's not appropriate for anyone to guess at diagnoses here, even a doctor would not be able to diagnose on a forum just by symptoms, you should visit your doctor with specific concerns.

Can you make it worse or ease the pain by pressing on it or massaging it? Is the area tender when the pain isn't evident?

Signs of early brain tumors would be unusual vertigo and pressure in head, or all of a sudden thunderclap lightening severe headache.

You could have an ear or sinus infection who knows? My fiancé had a brain tumor so that's why I know that..not that it helped anyways.

Hope you find your answer.

Peace
