What Causes Dizziness After Hitting Head?

Hello I fell down yesterday and hit my head on a wall followed by floor. I went to the ER and was looked at for any unusual issues. I had a slight cut on my head and i was dizzy and nauseated at that time. I ended up having 2 staples to close the cut. No xrays were done just a tetanus shot. Today when I woke up and felt dizzy when I got up. My question is if it is normal to still have these symptoms the day after? I've almost forgotten about the cut on my head and ave focused more on this dizziness. Thank you

HI
Well come to HCM
The dizziness may not be due to the head injury still this can not be neglected, because if this is head injury then this need to be investigated, if you have not done this then it is advisable to get done the CT scan just for safe side else this is nothing to worry, tale care and have a nice day.
