Got Hit On Head And Big Bump Appeared. Should I Consult A Doctor?
Question: I hit my head last night there is a big bump and a dent in the middle of it should i go to the hospitall
Dear XXXXXXX
There is history of injury to head but presumed that it was not associated with loss of consciousness, vomiting or any specific neurological complaint it appears to be a injury to scalp and/or skull bone. What you need is a check by general practitioner for a pain reliever and rest. You should consult the ER immediately in case of deterioration with the above symptoms.
