Tips from the Masters

Momot: Lightest effects include noise in the ears and darkness in the eyes. If the face nerve going close to ear nerve is damaged, it can result in the troubles with hearing, keeping balance, and face paralysis. Strong blow results in concussion, damage of the eardrums, bleeding, deep swoon and shock.
