Suggest Treatment For Dent On Forehead Post Injury
Hello, I received a blow to the head from a hammer in the forehead today(not a full swing, more of a , the hammer slipped of the screw we were pulling out of wood and hit me in the forehead). It wasn t a full swing but immedietely it cut my head. And next to the cut there is a small dent or something. I didn t lose conciousness or anything. I put ice on it immediately. And I feel slightly different then before but it doesn t seem to do much beside a minor headache and a little bit of dizziness... should I go get it checked out more closely?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, ideally head injury case need to be investigated and CT scan is the best option or else this need to be kept under observation for 48 hours, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
