What Causes Swelling In The Temple, Redness In The Eye And Headache Post Head Injury?

I hit the top of my head on the garage door. walked right into it looking down. my right eye looks like I have a blood vessel that busted and my right temple is swollen. it happened more than 24 hours ago and I have slept since then. I still have a slight head ache. Are these symptoms related?

Hi, the symptoms are definitely related and it is always safer to get a CT scan done to rule out internal bleeding in the brain. Meanwhile put ice on your eye and head for ten minutes every hour till you show your doctor--regards
