Hi I am really anxious at the moment over a hit on the head and what I should do. Let me explain... On Saturday I was bent down putting some books under my bed in the storage base and as I was doing it i knocked my book/dvd shelf unit (about 7ft tall), and I have a buzz lightyear figure (I am a film geek) that stands on top of the unit, that fell off and hit me on top of head. At the time I got caught off guard and it hurt enough to make me swear out but I couldn't feel a bump or cut and so just carried on with the day. The next morning on Sunday I awoke with a pain in my forehead (the toy hit me top of head) and I put it down to lack of sleep and also too much booze the night before (was at a bbq drinking). However that was a few days ago now and I keep getting like a pain that spams across my head and last couple seconds, it also triggers when I turn my neck certain way. Now i am worried I have bleeding on brain but i dont wanna pester A&E incase its not. But my anxiety is kicking in big time plus I have a court case tomorrow to try and see my daughter which I am worried about and feel that I cant go A&E anyway cos i would have to go after work at 5pm today and i dont wanna be getting in past midnight and looking tired in court tomorrow. I just dont know what to do. x
hihi there I can totally relate to your post as I hit my head every now and then and I freak out every time about the same thing and I have also gone to the and d for a couple of those incidences. hitting your head definitely isn’t something to take lightly on butt what I can tell you is what I have learned from the doctors thatif it has been more than 48 hours ago and you’re still alive you are definitely okay. also do a neurological tests on you to see if everything is still functioning correctly especially check the pupils ofif it has been more than 48 hours ago and you’re still alive you are definitely okay. also do a neurological tests on you to see if everything is still functioning correctly especially check the pupils of your eyes bye shining a light and one at a time and if they dilate both at the same time then you are good. of course it’s probably still going to hurt for a couple of days, you did hit your head! I hope this helps and I hope that the fear goes away soon.
GO TO YOUR HOSPITAL ER RIGHT NOW.
how are you feeling now??
