Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Fatigue, Dizziness And Pressure In The Head After Head Being Hit. Neck Pain. What Should I Do?
I ran into somebody yesterday and they are a lot bigger than me and the force made me fall back onto my head. The rest of the day, I was dizzy and felt pressure on my head and I was fatigue and I also saw stars. Today, the side of my neck hurts really badly and when I lay down, I can t get up on my own. What should I do?
I am Dr Mbong. I am sorry to hear about the fall. The symptoms your describe make me think you probably have some head and or neck problems from the collision and fall.
It may be a simple brain commotion (due to the brain moving from the collision and for which the symptoms will go away with time) or (and I hope not) a probable cranial box or neck bone trauma/fracture which can cause other severe complications.
PLEASE rush to the ER for consultation, proper investigation and treatment. You may need a brain scan.
Wish u quick recovery,
Dr Mbong
