Having been through all of that, I don t want to make an unnecessary trip to the er....would you go?
Hi Welcome to healhcaremagic After going through your query I concluded that you got injury to your face due to fall from tripping off a rope. Now you are having headache. By your mode of injury it unlikely to be head injury but you can get your CT scan done to rule it out. Analgesic such as ibuprofen will be of benefit in pain and headache. You can discuss with your Doctor about it.Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us.
