Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
Hi, all.
I know there are some nurses out there and I have a question.
I drive a small, two-door car and on Friday afternoon, I was leaning inside and cleaning out the back seat. I was moving things in and out, and at one point, heading back inside, I knocked my forehead against the top of the door jam.
It hurt and immediately swelled. It was not visible and it stopped hurting after a couple seconds, except when I touched it.
I went on with my schedule.
Right now, the spot where I smacked into the car, still hurts.
Could the extreme fatigue I've felt all weekend and through till right now, four days later, have resulted from my head hitting the car? I had no other symptoms, not even a headache (and I'm prone to headaches).

feel better soon.
Hope you get lots of beauty rest and sunshine.
No. I had no symptoms after it happened.
It didn't even hurt for more than a minute. No headache, no dizziness, no blurry vision, no nausea.
I'm prone to headaches, and I haven't even had a headache since the bump.
All that I felt was really, really tired, all weekend and definitely Monday. The reason this even occurred to me was that when I touched the spot on my forehead yesterday, it was still painful and I wondered if the smack to the spot was so very much harder than I'd imagined.
It's Wednesday morning now, and I have a full day.
I got a whole night's rest, and I'll see who I feel when I get home tonight.
After Natasha Richardson died so tragically, I suddenly got a little scared.
Thanks for the support and concern you all sent.

I think I'm okay.
I'm willing to bet that if you went to the ER they would diagnose you with a concussion and tell you not to exert yourself for a few days.
So do try to take it easy. The first thing I thought of when I started reading your post was Natasha Richardson. If you are still feeling poorly you should see someone just to be safe.
