Hi,I am Dr. Carol Rogala (Emergency Medicine). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Car trunk fell on my head last night. Hit me on to the front left of my head. There's a bump. Had minor headache and small bump that's tender to the touch. Iced it twice last night but am flying out in half an hour. Still a small bump and have a small headache, especially in the area. Was wondering if I'm ok to fly.
