I hit my head.......

[SillyOldBear66]

I hit my head this morning around 6:30am. I was squating down getting something from a lower shelf and something startled me....I jumped up and whacked my head on the shelf about 3 feet above. the pain was instantly blinding. i made it to the couch until the stars went away.
I have slight lump on my head but nothing much.
The issue is that i feel like I'm going to throw up when ever i stand up. i took some tylenol but the headache is still there.
the only other thing is i feel like ....this is weird...like i have a sinus infection...you know...sinus pressure.
laying here with the laptop on my chest is ok...just the dull headache.

So.....can someone enlighten me on bumps to the head?
Should I touch base with the doc?
Wait awhile?

??????

Thanks....

Tabitha - if it were me and I kept feeling sick everytime I stood up, I think I would have someone drive me to the ER to be checked out. (Please don't drive yourself!) Or call your doctor, at least, right away...I wouldn't wait. You know the old saying, better safe than sorry.

Let us know how you are!

Please contact a doctor or better yet, have someone drive you to the ER.

When I broke my ankle the pain was as you described it and the feeling of wanting to throw up was there as well....I saw stars and all that too.

Please check it out SOON because I don't think the feelings/sensations you are having are a good thing. Get a neighbor to drive you if you must.
