What Causes Severe Headaches After A Fall?

I fell over a speed bump while going to a funeral. I landed on my head and it hit right between the eyes. I was knocked out for a minute but got up and continued with going to the funeral. My head did swell out between the eyes and down my right nostril. I get really bad headaches and it has been 4 days now. I am 55 years old and over weight. What should I do?

HI
Well come to HCM
Any head injury need to be investigated properly and should not be taken as granted ideally head injury case need to be kept under the observation for couple of days, in your case better to get done the x-ray study of head to rule out the fracture part, for the inflammation and pain you can try Tab Acetaminophen and Ibuprofen tree times in day, take care.
