What Causes Swelling On Forehead With Black Eyes Post An Injury?

On Friday I passed out and hit my forehead on concrete. Spent Friday night in the hospital and everything checked out ok. I plan to see my primary care tomorrow or Tuesday. In the meantime, both of my eyes have turned very black. Forehead looks to be slightly more swollen than it was this morning. Do I need to be concerned, or will I be ok until I see my Dr. in a day or two?

Hello,

Blackening of eyes with swelling of forehead is serious and is suggestive of fracture of skull bones. I will advise you to immediately visit emergency for a ct scan.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
