A member asked:

Passed out monday, hit my head on the ground. black eye, split lip and lump on my head. headaches and sensitivity to smell. go to my pcp? or wait

Yes, PCP, or ED: Passing out and hitting your head with a new change in smell, as well as headaches deserves an evaluation. Your split lip may need stitches too. I recommend going your pcp or your local emergency department to review your symptoms and injuries. Passing out syncope) requires a work up.
