What Causes Dizziness And Pain In Head After A Head Injury?

Whilst abroad I accidentially missed sitting onto a chair and banged the back of my head quite hard on a wall. I have a cut that bled quite heavily. I was not knocked up but when i woke the next morning I couldnt walk to the left for a while so went to see a doctor and he just washed the wound and said there was a bruise. I am 43 years old in normal health but am still getting times off feeling really dizzy and light headed. The back off my head is still sore and hurts to touch - is this normal

HI
No this isn't normal
You at least suffered a concussion but you need an MRI of the brain to make sure you don't have an intracranial hemorrhage
