i went boating yesterday and was riding on the back of a tube. i got hit in the head by something when i fell off, i can't remember. The only thing it could have been was a person. i didn't even feel anything until i got back to the beach. I can only remember parts of what happened that day. I have some swelling where i got hit. the next morning felt like i had a hangover until i took some excederine. i feel fine now, am i ok or am i just being a worry wort?

Definitely see a doctor! You're probably okay, but do you really want to gamble around with your HEALTH? You might have sustained a very minor concussion. You might have also had a bit of bleeding on the brain. You could even have a slight skull fracture. All of these things warrant a thorough check by a doctor, because some may have long-term consequences. PLEASE don't take chances; it's better to err on the side of caution, as the saying goes. :) Good luck!!

Sounds like you blacked out during the incident and you might have a concussion. That is nothing to fool with, so if I were you, I'd go to the doctor just to make sure you don't have any severe brain damage. Later on it might be too late to do anything about it. Take care of it now!

I would definately go to a doctor. Even though you feel fine now. You may have seriously injured yourself and not know it.

Yeah, go ahead and see the doc. Ask for some of the best drugs you can get from him and enjoy the flight. lol

I think you are ok but if you start to get dizzy, or start blacking out, or getting migraines then see a doctor.

Possibly if you got knocked out you should just get yourself checked out

if you feel fine now, odds are you're fine--you got hit and it hurts and now you're better.
however, if you start to feel worse, then go see your doctor
