About 2 Nights ago i was laying down on a couch and i jumped up (i dont remeber why) and i hit my head on the ceiling. I fell to the ground and was crying because my head hurt SO badly. i took a motrin that night but the next morning i still had a headache. Ive benn continuing to take advil but nothing has helped. I am a little dizzy and a little nausus. Any help as of what i should do?

Most certainly get looked at by local emergency room, head injuries can escalate into serious conditions very fast, dont hesitate, go now!!!!
Simone has a very good answer

I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure that dizziness and nausea for two days after a head injury is a very bad sign. Go the the ER asap.

If you vomit then you must see a doctor immediately as you might have swelling or even bleeding in the skull.
If you have had both these symptoms of nausea and dizziness for two days then go to hospital now if you can, or at least phone medical helpline for advice.

I'm not a doctor but I play one on line. lol
In all seriousness why haven't you gone to the ER or seen your doctor. I rather you be safe than sorry. When your health is at stake don't take any chances. Hope all goes well.

Yes---you need to go straight to the ER and have a CT scan. You very well may have a head injury (nausea is a sure sign).

I'm no doctor, but I've been to the hospital for a headache that's made me vomit. They told me that if it's the worse headache I've had in my life, they want to know about it. Goto a doctor, if not, a hospital.

the same thing happened to my mother, except a bottle fell on her head when she was cleaning, and she's been having headaches ever since.
i'd recommend going to the doctor, and getting it checked out personally..

You have a concussion. And are you 8 feet tall? How do you hit your head on the ceiling ?

Severe head trauma can cause the brain to swell, and that can kill you if it swells even a little. Medication can reverse this. See a doctor.

im no doctor but maybe u could have gotten a concussion.. u sound young like u dont wanna tell ur parnts.. maybe u need to go to the doctor. .. its probably nothing.. but the doctor will give you a much better pain killer if need be.
