What Causes Nausea After A Head Injury?

My partner fell backwards while kneeling on the floor and hit the back of her head fairly hard on the corner of the end table. She had a small indentation but now a small goose egg has come up around the indentation. She does not have a headache and does not feel dizzy or woozy and did not lose conscientiousness--nor does she feel nauseous. She is wondering whether or not we should go to the hospital for a cat scan to make sure there is no internal bleeding going on. What do you think?

Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic

I reviewed your history.
The symptoms of nausea following head injury requires evaluation to rule out concussion head injury.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.


Thank you
