A member asked:

I banged my head quite hard on a kitchen cupboard on thursday and still have a headache. should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not: Most likely, you have area of bruising which has triggered tension headache, which should depart over the next few days. If you do not have repetitive nausea, vomiting, dizziness, imbalance, blurring or doubling of vision, no reason to be concerned.
