What Causes Headache After A Fall?

i fell down stairs two days ago. There was carpet. So I dont feel pain of falling on the ground. But im still having headache. It faded for an hour today so I thought I got better. But now I still have it. Do I need to go to the hospital ER or clinic? Hospital or clinic is cheaper to do test about my head if I need one?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Accidental injury to head which initially feels painless and later onset of headache is there, it must be examined by a doctor once. Is there any swelling present?

Did you have any other symptoms apart from a headache? I would suggest you visit a hospital rather than clinic as you will be able to get easy access to any diagnostic tests under one roof if there is need of any. Let the doctor examine you first, then do as per the doctor says.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
