Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Pain At The Back Of Head Along With Blurred Vision?
I slipped of toilet and landed back side down and the back of head hit the toilet and wacked pretty good. It s been two days and the back of head hurts right in the center and the top of my shoulders worried more about my head have a lump but no blurry vision or anything just a headache. Should I go to ER please say no.
I have gone through your query and understand your concern.
You had injury in back of your head resulting in swelling and pain, and i hope there was no vertigo, vomiting, seizures, loss of conciousness, Ear nose and throat bleed, & blurred vision after that.
If you have any of these issues any time after the injury then you should immediately visit the ER as soon as possible and get a CT / MRI Scan of head.
If you are only having pain and swelling right now then i will suggest you to take some NSAID's and apply some ice packs over the injured area. This will reduce the swelling and pain.
wish you good health. Thanks & Regards Dr. Shiv
