Detailed Answer:
Hello Ms XXXXXXX

Thanks for posting your question.

Feeling giddy after hitting head could indicate intracranial bleeding, I strongly recommend you to shift him to a nearest hospital urgently.

Examination by a neurosurgeon and a CT scan of the head and brain is a must to rule out any bleeding in the brain or brain damage. Please do take him to a hospital soon.

Hope this answers your question.

Kind regards.
