Pay attention: Hi. I'm sorry about the head bonk! Usually there's no problem, but very rarely minor head bonks can be disastrous. Liam Neeson's wife, Natasha Richardson, died of a trivial head bonk. So pay attention to how you're feeling. Dizziness already concerns me. If headache or dizziness worsen or any other neurologic symptoms develop, get to an ER pronto! Good luck!

Be seen: You could have a concussion based on the symptoms you describe. It would be best to be seen promptly to determine whether you need additional diagnostic or treatments for the issue.
