Can Vertigo Be Caused Due To Falling On Head?
Hi I fell realy hard yesterday when I slipped on some ice .I have a big bump on the back of my head and a sore neck
Last night when I was moving from one side to another in my bed it felt like the room started spinning very fast for few seconds. Is it possible that the vertigo is because og the fall ?

dear sir/ma,am
hi
injury to head/neck due to fall can very well cause these symptoms .
it can cause headache vertigo uneasyness / vomitings etc.
get yourself investigated with CT SCAN brain / xrays cervical spine to rule out any injury
thanx
