Never resume activity after a hit to the head that leaves you dazed. At that point you’re brain is basically weakened, and if it will be much more sensitive and vulnerable to getting shaken around from al the jumping and what not while cheerleading, possibly worsening the injury. If you’re still having symptoms, my number 1 advice is don’t hot your head again anytime soon. Avoid it at all cost. Like don’t even bump your head on the headboard when going to sleep. Nutritious food (fatty fish esp), limit screens in the evening and night so you can get to sleep at night, get morning sunlight (which will also
help you sleep at night), go for walks, etc.
On Sat. 4/7/18, I slipped on ice and fell backward, landed on my back and hit the back of my head really hard. I was a little disoriented at first, but just for a minute or so. I worked the rest of the day and had a Dr.s appt on Mon.4/9/18.
My Dr. asked me if I vomited and if I had a headache. I said no, but I didn't mention that I have been sick to my stomach, but have also been going through a lot of stress.
The Dr. said I had a hematoma and it would heal on its own. Since I'm sick to my stomach should I go to ER & get brain/skull scan? It smacked the concrete extremely hard, I couldn't believe that when I reached to the back of my head there was no blood. Should I be worried being its been 3 1/2 days now? I still haven't had a headache. Only sick to my stomach, but think...I was before this happened? My family Dr. is pretty smart, he has even given and read my stress test, which I was impressed with. So am I okay or should I get checked anyway? A little worried is all. Where I hit, there is blood under the skin and a little squishy, like I said, he said: "it was a hematoma and should heal on its own."
I got my fourth concussion about 5 weeks ago, my third in ten months. I was in two accidents last year four months apart, then this last one was at work. I've seen the workman's comp doctor and he has turned my care over to a neurologist, whom I can't get into until May. I've been symptomatic this entire time: constant headaches, ear ringing, vomiting, balance issues, blurred vision. I've fallen twice since the concussion, resulting in contusions on my head. The pain and vomiting were so bad last week I went to the ERer, and the doctor said I was wasting his time and he couldn't help me. He also said if I was there for painkillers, I needed to get out of his ER. I felt humiliated and depressed that no one can help me feel better. Was that doctor out of line and what do I do for some relief while I wait to see the neurologist?
Yes. The doctor was completely out of line. You should have asked to speak to a hospital administrator or the appropriate person over him. Report him to the proper authority and don’t back down. Given your symptoms you could have been/or are in serious condition. Seek a second opinion if u haven’t already. Gl.
Seriously, you need to get a 2nd opinion, that Dr needs striking off! I have been to A&E today with the same as you and the consultants did a thorough check and a CT scan too. I'm okay just concussion no bleeding in the brain but I now have to take time off work and rest up. Take paracetamol only and get plenty of rest and it could take a while to get better, if not better this time next week I am to go straight back up to A&E. I feel crap but confident of full recovery having been to A&E but wish I'd gone straight away which is what they told me I should have done. Good luck, I hope you get it sorted soon. If not then lodge one helluva a complaint and remember to the Doctor's name for the complaint. If you have to wait for the Neurologist then I suggest you take the time out to rest up and take paracetamol only whilst you do.
It's a little late; but, yes.. the doctor was out of line. If you ever deal with that again, you should retort that you're not here for the pain (though of course it's a concern) - you're here because you've had multiple head injuries and haven't been able to access proper care and accessment. You need a consult with the neurologist on call and to get any imaging they think you my need -- that your first injury hasn't improved & has directly caused additional head injuries & you need that to stop happening. Also, if you get shit on like that again, you can tell the nurse you need to speak to a social worker. They can advocate on your behalf. I hope things are better now.
The way he treated you wasn't nice, though I can't tell the manner of approach you did or how you explained your condition. But I'll advice you to see another medical practitioner. (I'm not a specialist though, just my opinion).
Hey there. That doctor seems way out of line. Brain injuries are very serious and considering you have persisting symptoms they should of done some scans to make sure everything was okay and rule out any bleeding in the brain. You can take panadol but don't take anything like ibuprofen. Also dont drink alcohol as it thins your blood
I recently rolled my car (3/22/18) and developed a large cranial hematoma. A CT scan was done and they released me. On 3/27, I started having a headache and the goose egg seems to be getting bigger. I don't want to be dramatic and run to the ER. . . . . Suggestions??
It is important you go. They won't think you are dramatic. They will think you are smart even if it turns out to be nothing. It doesn't hurt to go it could turn into something. You had a very big injury. Something more could have formed such as a head bleed that is deadly. Take my advice go now it can never hurt.
I went to close the tailgate of my car with full strength and hit the middle of my head. This happened Friday, I am still in pain and have headaches. Should I go to the ER? I have had two concussions before this so I'm pretty sure it is a slight concussion
Help, I was assembling a weight lifting chair and before even assembling anything, one of the legs tipped over and hit my head causing a small cut towards the front almost the side of my head. Bleeding stopped very soon and I never lost consciousness but I do feel a little bit dizzy and nauseous. The cut is not bleeding anymore but I'm worried. Should I go to the hospital.
So i fainted and became unconscious for a min or so my friend was there he said i hit my head on the way fown but i just sat kind of crumbled after i woke up i felt sick to my stomach i stood up after i got my barrings and felt okay to walk i took 4 steps and fainted again ive never had this happen now ive felt tired and achey all over for the past 20 hours or so should i go to the er im really nervous
Um... you all just need to go to the doctor. If you are even asking that question because you are not feeling “right” in any way after a blow to the head. Then yes, seek medical attention. Better to err on the side of caution...
I just fell of my bike today, messed my elbow up pretty bad. Anyways, I can't remember if I hit my head hard or not at all. There isn't a blemish on my skull. I did some research, and an online test, but I think i'm fine, and it's just the adrenaline. I don't feel "right" but im going to check in with the family after a bit. Just to see if it progressively gets worse. I heard that it can take upwards of 24 hours for symptoms to appear so i'm just a tad worried. But that's just the thing, if you fall, and can't see/feel an issue, how do you even know you hit your head in the first place? For all I know I only scraped my elbow badly. This is a very worrisome issue, but I heard the chances of having a concussion are about 1/1000. If you do suffer from memory loss, fatigue, drowsiness, etc. I'd personally get checked out.
PS: WEAR A HELMET, I'M LUCKY BECAUSE THERE WAS A NURSE AT THE PARK WHERE I WAS BIKING, I'VE LEARNED A VALUABLE LESSON
PSS: After rereading this paragraph I don't sound like someone with a concussion. I'm probs just overreacting.
Sarcasm, ad nauseam... I'm with you Jen
There is nothing more precious than life.
Sad that the medical 'business' is beyond affordable to so many, leaving them wondering if they should seek help - when they know the really should, maybe even risking their life to avoid loosing their arm and leg to pay for, in most cases, their assurance.
When I was around 10 yrs old, I was repeatedly kicked in the back if the head around 12 times by a boy, I did tell the teacher and was very wobbly and vision was burred. I'm just wondering if this could of resulted in some sort of damage. I suffer with depression, and my moods have suffered for years. I suffer with memory loss. I can't remember things from when I was young. Would just like an opinion please
HI my daughter got hit by a car walking down the road 2 weeks ago. They said she had a contusion on outer left side and seen nothing else. But ever since then she has been very aggressive, crying, and having emotional issues. Could something else be going on that was maybe not seen during the emergency?
I hit the back of my head on a metal bed frame falling onto the bed from standing up 5 days ago, and immediately after it I don’t remember what happened, then I couldn’t move my head until the morning. Since then I’ve had a consistent headache, dizziness, sensitivity to light, drowsiness, and confusion. I went to hospital 2 days ago and they just said to take panadol and nurofen daily and to come back if it doesn’t get better, or gets worse, or the dizziness gets worse or if my balance gets worse or if I get nauseous l, or anything else that could be related. Yesterday I noticed all new things coming up in addition to everything before. I’m very worried and think I should get a scan because I normally have a lot of pain in my body and stuff going on anyway that could be affecting it, and all my friends think I should go back, but my dad doesn’t seem that worried and is saying that it’s normal. What should I do?
I was playing ice hockey(still do) about a year ago. I got tripped up and flew about 5-6 feet across the ice while flying about 4 feet off the ground and went head first into the boards. The impact was on the top/back portion of my head(my back was facing the ice and I was going backwards into the boards). Upon impact my head snapped forward(whiplash) I blacked out and remember coming to laying face down on the ice holding my head and the red whistling. At that point I knew I was playing hockey but was a little confused what was going on in the game and knew I had blacked out(not the first time I’ve been knocked unconscious). I ended up sitting out for a little and then went back in to play(I know it was stupid and I was being stubborn). I’ve never gone to a doctor any time I’ve been concussed(yes I know it was a concussion and yes I know I’m stupid for not going). I believe my head has gotten a little messed up, as I forget things I’m talking about and I have developed a slight stutter at times. A perfect example is this post I’m writing right now, I honestly forgot the what I’m commenting on and just know it’s about hitting my head and getting concussions but other than that I don’t even know if I’m commenting on the same “theme” everyone else is. I just know i messed up by not going to a doctor, now I have a completely different injury to my throat/neck and will be seeing a doctor very soon and won’t make the same mistakes again.
hi . Today I hit my head in the sport class . My friend had knocked it with the basket ball so hard . I am ok but I fell like my brain is moving , is it normal?
A few weeks ago I fell and the right side of my head bounced off the concrete floor, getting headaches I went to the doctors and was told I had a concussion as I had lost consiousness for a few minutes. Now I am having a problem with vertigo and concussion, plus when I lay on the side where I hit my head I get severe pain on the top of my head and at the back of my ear, plus I get really dizzy and feel sick. I sleep most of the day now, should I worry? I am over 65 years old
This is a really interesting chain of messages, in many ways I feel less alone with my own concerns. Please bear with the following, by nature, I'm a worrier and this is ruining my life.
A number of years ago, I walked into a pillar; I was looking the other way whilst walking, looking for someone, then turned around and bang! I was a bit dazed, and the point of contact was on the forehead, just above my left eyebrow. I went into the pub where I was meeting my friends, and I had a massive goose egg bump, with a small cut, which was bleeding. The bar staff were a bit shocked at the bruise and asked if I needed to go to the hospital, but I said no, I was ok - they just stuck a plaster on. I then had a few drinks with mates, then went home; wakened up the following day and felt pretty much ok.
At the same time, I was going through a pretty difficult time in my life, going through University, broken up with a girlfriend, trying to find myself really. Anyway, I just feel at that time, I lost confidence, experienced a really dry mouth when speaking to people, and seemed to slur my words quite a lot. This is still the case years later, and I keep thinking if this is the result of the head injury - was it totally innocuous, or should I have gone to the hospital? Have I just got generalized anxiety, which is causing the dry mouth, etc?
I know the above may sound pretty minor to others who have posted on here, but this has become an obsession for me and has ruined my life. Am I worrying about nothing ref the bump on the head? Really appreciate feedback on this guys.
If I were you I'd go see a doctor and tell them my concerns. A head injury is a serious thing, it's your head and when we are not at 100%, our bodies will try and protect and heal. I'm offering up a special prayer for you. It sounds like you have a lot going on. Good luck and God bless you.
I fell and hit my forehead three months ago causing concussion. Still off work now suffering from anxiety and depression. Up until then I was perfectly healthy definitely think it was the blow to the head.
I hit the back of my head after falling Straight back from only standing height. I don’t feel sick or dizzy but have a head ache that mostly disappears with paracetamol. But I do have a bruise feeling on the area where I hit my head-do you think I’m fine and it should just go away?
Hi! My boyfriend hit his head (eyebrow part) on the ground so hard in the past -- 8 years ago. He briefly lost his consciousness and had a severe headache. And after that day the pain disappeared. And now he's experiencing an everyday headache (mild & severe) and sometimes dizziness. I'm so worried about his condition. Do we need to see a neurologist to check his head? How much does it cost?
I hit my head 3 nights ago. I have a severe headache that hasn't gone away. My vision gets really blurred when I drive and sometimes at work I lose balance. I hit my head last year in an accident on the left side. When I fell this time I hit my forehead on my hairline. Should I go to the hospital?
I hit the base of my skull around five days ago, I was sleepy, draining mucus, I have loss of memory and for two days I felt in a daze/with slow responses. At this point my husband and I agree I had a concussion. However now I have this straining pain on the side were I hit my head and in my neck. It's as if my heads pulling down that direction. I also have stiffness. Should I go to the hospital it's an old injury now
