Head Injury After Drinking, Vomiting, Forehead Swelling, Nausea. What Should I Do?
Last night around 10 pm I hit my head really hard and didn t remember anything this morning. I was drinking and I was throwing up this morning, due to drinking too much. It is now 24 hours after hitting my head and I still don t feel very good. It is swollen on my forehead and I kind of still feel nauseas. What should I do?

Hello Dear
Thanks for your query.
You should get a clinical examination done from a neurologist. Dont neglect a head injury .There may be hemorrhage in the brain which needs attention.
You may need a CT scan of brain done to see if there is internal hemorrhage.
Hope this helps.
Update here how you stay .
Take care.

Hi Ashleyann,
Thanks for writing your query.
Nausea or vomiting can be due to head injury as well as with excessive drinking.
According to me you should get your head scanned and consult a Neurophysician for examination of the cause of your symptoms.
There might be a possibility that you are having concussion injury and you are feeling nausea due to that.
You should take proper rest as it will help you recover soon.
I hope this is useful to you.
Thanks.
