Could Headaches And Vomiting Be Related To The Hitting Of Head Weeks Ago?

I hit my head a few weeks ago on the side and I think it gave me a concussion where I hit my head was swollen for about a week. It is still tender there. But now I have really bad headaches and keep throwing up. Is this a related symptom and is it serious?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having headache and vomiting following a head injury.
Headache and vomiting after head injury can indicate signs of raised intra cranial tension as a result of head injury.
Hence this requires evaluation to rule out head injury. So do consult your doctor for further examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
