I keep hitting my darn head by accident?!
Question: I keep hitting my darn head by accident.?
I am so GOOFY...at least once a week at work i am getting up from a squatting position and hitting my head hard on metal rods. now my husband is telling me i can die from this. Today, i accidentally hit my head after getting up from bending down to pick something up, i bumped above my forehead on a metal rod HARD. it hurt but i didnt black out. now it is still sore, a small bump, but no dizziness, no nausea, just sore. Can i really die from this, or is he overreacting. He said he had seen on TV that an old man hit his head in a car accident and walked out of it thinking he was fine but went home and died a few hours later from a blood clot that had pressed against his brain or something. please help me assure my husband that i am not gonna die...Health Question & Answer
Answers:
if u hit something really hard,it can cause blood clotting..it depends on the situation....your case is minor...it will only gonna cause small bump. eventually,the bump will heal itself..maybe like 2-3 days..
the old man had a MAJOR accident which lead to extensive bleeding>death..
your husband just playing around,he said that because he want u to be careful next time..
if u dont want the same thing happened again,(bumped your forehead),
always remember not to get up quickly.. dont rushed and just relax..
ways to overcome it:
-stick colourful notes anywhere near the metal so that u can remind yourself next time..
-consume more vitamin K and calcium!(aids in blood clotting) :PHealth Question & Answer

Hi Juicy !
ANY head injury can give rise to complications - so it's best to get checked out by a medical professional - just in case.
HOWEVER - it's rare to die from 'self-inflicted' accidental bumps unless you happen to have a weak skull.Health Question & Answer
