Default Alcohol Withdrawal and Concussion

Hi everyone! I'm a little freaked out about how I feel right now so any help would be nice.

I've been a heavy drinker all year. I would go through bouts of being drunk every day for a week or so followed by a week or two of abstinence.
Sometimes in my time off I would feel mild withdrawal symptoms but nothing too severe.

A few days ago I was at a wedding party after a weekly drinking fit
and I bumped my forehead. I barely felt it at the time and I continued to
go about my evening just fine. The next morning however, I had a bump
on my head and a pretty bad headache.

Now 2 days later I still feel a bit off. My head hurts, I'm tired, and I feel mildly spacey.
Also, I usually run or walk 2-5 miles a day for exercise yet when I tried to walk for about 1 mile today I felt awful. My head was pounding every time I moved and I felt... out of it maybe dizzy.

I'm going to contact a doctor in an hour but I wanted any advice on what could be going on.


Thanks in advance.
