Question

My neck is sore in the back and I have been dizzy. My ear hurts and it feels clogged as well as red and warm at touch with headache. Possibilities?

Answer 1

Be seen: You may have sustained a concussion, which should be evaluated promptly. Please be seen in order to have a diagnostic assessment and treatment plan created.

Answer 2

Yes: Dizziness, headache, nausea and vomiting after head injury definitely require doctor attention. Even with dryer door hit this is possible concussion. Still need evaluation and treatment.

Answer 3

Yes, go!: If your headache is not relieved by over the counter pain relievers taken as prescribed on the bottle only, and/or your thinking is not clear, you need to go to the ER. Good luck!
