How To Cure Headache Caused Due To An Accident?
I got up quickly after picking a toy up and hit my head very hard under the granite counter top. I hit the right-top backside of my head. I feel headachy, tired and sensitive to the light today. I iced it last night and took down the swelling. Do I have a concussion? Thank you, Angela

Hello
It seems from the history that you had a head injury following which you are having headache.
You need to worry about headache following head injury if you have symptoms like nausea vomiting dizziness loss of consciousness following injury bleeding from nose or ears following injury.
If you any of these symptoms you need immediate evaluation by your doctor to rule out concussion.
If you do not have the above mentioned symptoms then no need yo worry it will be amuscular pain and it will come down.
Thank you
