Should I See A Physician If I Have Sever Headache Post Injury?
Hi I hit my head two days ago pretty hard on a wooden beam and ended up on my butt, seemed okay when I got up but within an hour or so I had a terrible headache and felt sick to my stomach, head is sore and have a lingering but not hurtful headache, very tired. When should I call my physician?

Hello and welcome.
Thanks for sharing your concern.
Please note that head injury can lead to internal damage of nerves and vessels.
Therefore it is better to get it examined once.Scanning will rule out any kind of damage caused.It appears that you are anemic too.
for now if requird you can take a pain killer until you see your physician.
Take plenty of fluids and juices.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
Take care.
