Hit Forehead On Bag Several Times. Felt Dizzy, Vomited, No Balance. Is This Serious?
Last night I was training on the heavy bag doing some karate training. I then decided to hit my forehead on the 70 pound bag for a 100 times. One hour later I felt dizzy and started to vomit and had a hard time keeping my balance.
Went to sleep, woke up about half hour later and vomited again. Went back to bed and this morning I feel much better. Just have a little headache. Should I go to see my doctor?
Thank You,
Frank

Hi,
your symptoms are consistent with peripheral vertigo(related to ear, inview of hit of forehead )
This has to be confirmed by clinical examination. Consult family physician/neurologist for same.Always it is better to confirm than waiting for complication and then visiting a doctor.Short course betahistine helps to control vertigo.
