Should I Be Worried About Bruise On My Head?

Hi, a friend was messing around on Tuesday night, picked me up over his shoulder and I fell and landed on my head/face. I had been drinking so didn t notice the pain too much but now I have a really sore bruise and have been feeling really sleepy all morning which is unlike me. Should I get checked out?

HI
Well come to HCM
Let me inform you that any head injury should be taken seriously ideally this need to be kept under medical observation for 48 hours because anything could happens during this time period, in my opinion better to get done clinical examination and imaging study, hope this information helps, take care.
