Does Headache And Light Headedness After An Injury Need Medical Attention?

I bangged my head to a very solid steel column, first y was dizzy for abaout a minute, and didn't know If I was going to faint. I put ice for about 3 hours, and took a pain pill. The fisical pain was al gone after two days, and I was feeling very good. The third day came, and I suddenly started to get dizzy, with headaches and with a sense of beeing a bit lost in my head. I have aldo been really sleepy and tired. The bump is gone, and I don't feel any external pain, but I my head husts by the sides, and behind my eyes. Should I go the the hospital???? thanxs YYYY@YYYY

Hello. Thanks for asking from HCM.


I can understand your concern. If you are experiencing recurrence of dizziness, headache after 3 days of head injury, you should consult neurosurgeon. Do not ignore it. You may be advised CT scan of head after thorough evaluation.


Thanks. Hope it will help you. Take care.
