Should i take aspirin after hitting my head?

Best to avoid: If you are not already on Aspirin for another medical condition, it is best to use other medications for pain if you have an injury. If you are prescribed aspirin, you should discuss this with your doctor. Remember, if Aspirin were invented today it would probably be used mainly as a blood thinner.
