"for future reference"..?..do you plan on hitting your head again sometime soon? because i would definitely suggest against it.

you dont have to stay awake after hitting your head i believe...it was a away to mointor someone to see if there were any changes immediately after the incident...but if you lost conciousness for a few minutes or have any memory lapse then i would say see a doctor...

also, if you're not naseaus or speaking weird (slurring, not making sense, etc.) by this point, i think you're ok...like someone said above, that's why the whole "don't go to sleep" thing is relevant. it's mainly just to monitor if there are any changes in behavior which could signify an actual head (brain) injury opposed to just a bump. in any case, feel better :)

Next time def stay awake for a few hrs. Take an asprin and put some ice on your head. Def call a Dr. if you feel all fucked up and light headed for a few hrs after. You could die in your sleep that way....I think its either from a clot forming or you can go into a coma...not 100% sure what a coma is in medical terms but I know you can fall into one.

Well who knows at your house. You could have another messed up dog that relieves him or herself where ever. True story though, when my dog was a puppy he took a dump in the hallway and my mom almost busted her ass cause non of the lights were on. HAHAHAH of course I was on the floor laughing and then had hell to pay after cause I let the dog in her hallway.

I got hit in the head with 2 baseball bats when I was about 5 years old...that probably explains why I am the way I am now...LOL

Some kid was warming up and I walked behind him as he was swinging the bats.....fucking hurt like a bastard. Never went to the hospital though.

Mikey77's older brother was there actually...lol

thats exactly what happened to her, but she walked behind a backswing they were playing street ball with an alimun bat and blue ball go figure. she had headphones on ,
i was standing right theere and heard CLUNK her head snapped back she never hit the ground (thats my FAM! WHAT WHAT!) she took another 4 steps and the blood started to actually spray out, (head wounds usually bleed alot) she was completely quite until she saw the blood then started screaming bloody murder. but she never went down! thats my sister. he he. she needed stitches it was right smack in the middle of her forehead shes still got a small scar that looks like a Y.

i got jumped 1 time and sent to the hospital by like 6 kids, i got kicked so many times in the face that i looked like the dude from mask. broke th bridge of my nose , fractured a rib, chipped teeth, stomped my fingers nails splith on my left hand.
In a drunken stupor trying to actually fight, my boy had the right idea go down and cover up. i was an idiot. i got hit so many times i blacked out. (i never went down tho. lol well not until i blacked out then they had a field day with me) my good friend John actually carried me unconscious from utica avenue and ave P to marine park where he lived. i also outweighed him like 20 pounds. thank god for him.
suffice to say my vision was fucked for a few weeks.

i would really go get an xray if you broke any bones you want to set that asap.

i know your chiro said its ok, but if not a bone it could be a tendon, thats pretty swollen..

is that a tattoo on the side or a bruise?
