Should I Be Concerned About The Mild Throbbing Pain In Head Following An Injury?

Hello, I was swimming at an indoor pool about an hour ago an I hit my head on the wall. The initial pain went away in about a minute and I got a bag of ice and placed it on my head. I have a mild throbbing pain in the area that was hit, and my brain seems to be "foggy". I have told my mom and she told me to continue icing it. Do you think I need to see a doctor, or be more worried about this?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that you have a head injury, probably concusion.
I advise you to consult a neurologist for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have a C.T. scan for confirmation.
Avoid taking spices, junk foods, and oily foods to avoid the vomiting, and giddiness.
Avoid swimming, riding, and driving, especially in public places.
wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
