Should I Be Worried About Dizziness After Head Hitting On A Wall?
Hi I hit the left side of my head hard on a wall at the end of November, i have seen my GP who has gave me tablets to calm the nerves in my head down. I saw another doc the other day as symptoms still here, i am now going for a scan but dont know when. Over the last two days I have been very dizzy and its worrying me, do you think I should go to hospital?

Thank you for asking!
Any trauma to the head needs an observation and for the first 24 hours at least. Dizziness need to be worked up before calling it innocuous. lets wait for the head scans and hope for the best. Meanwhile rest and keep head side of the bed 8 inches higher than the rest of the body. Seek a doctor or neurologist and let them take care of it.
Take care
