Should ER Be Consulted For The Pain In Head And Knee After A Fall?
About 30 minutes ago I fell down maybe 7-10 steps. I remember the fall. I have minor neck/head pain. I struck my knee which is a little more painful. I do have slight nausea but I have gastrointestinal problems very often and am nauseous almost every day. Should I go to the ER is my question or wait awhile
Please consult immediately. Explain the doctor clearly about your accident. What all u have, I meant pain etc symptoms. But most of all immediately after such thing plse keep a cold pad on d knee as well as d affected part of head, it eases d pain
