The Other Day I Was Drunk And Hit My Head

default
Posted on Sat, 20 Apr 2019
Question: The other day I was drunk and hit my head while going down some stairs. It wasn't from falling, I just hit my head on a wall corner. Since I was drunk it's hard to remember symptoms, but didn't pass out or anything. I also don't remember having a headache after. The next day I felt pretty normal. Would I have had a headache the next day if I hit my head dangerously hard?

Brief Answer:
Just a trivial injury and nothing serious.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
The mode of injury is very trivial and does not cause any significant intracranial ( inside brain) pathologies like bleed. Moreover you are young and you didn’t had symptoms like vomiting or seizure. So no definite treatment is required now.
If you are very much anxious, you can go for a CT head just for reassurance and according to my opinion it is absolutely not required.
Wishing all the best.
