Should I Consult The Doctor For The Headaches And Nausea After A Fall?
I hit the back left of my head yesterday. Afterwards had a headache for over an hour and felt nauseous most of the day after that. Today I am not feeling nauseous but still feel I have a headache. My question is whether or not I should go to the ER to get checked

Hello,
After head trauma, you should be put under medical supervision for 24 hours then you should do a CT Brain. If you had a deterioration in the level of conscious, you could do a CT Brain. But, you do not have, so you need to take some analgesics(panadol).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
