General & Family Physician, Dr. Piyush K's Response
Welcome to HCM. I understand your concern. I would like to ask some questions. Did you had any nasal or ear bleed post the hit or had any vomiting or disturbance in vision post the hit. If the answer to any one of the above mentioned query is yes then a scan of brain might be needed to rule out any internal bleed. OTHERWISE JUST A PLAIN ANALGESIC LIKE CROCIN WILL BE ADEQUATE. No need to worry. Thanks and regards. Take care.
