Nailed my head last night, broke skin and unicorn bump!!!
 
Last night, I was donating some stuff to a Goodwill donation box. I couldn't get the bag to fit inside the trap door, so I jumped up to push it in and NAILED my head on the top of the box. The hit was hard enough to make me see stars and feel disoriented on the drive home. Now, I have about a half inch unicorn bump on the top center of my head.

JUST MY LUCK!

I'm definitely feeling the effects of it today.

Maybe I should start wearing a helmet? Geez.

Protect your head everyone!

OMG! I'm so sorry!

Ever since my 2nd concussion I keep hitting my head on different things purely by accident or out of my own stupidity. That's how ~5 more concussions happened.

I guess we all have balance issues even if we think we don't.:confused:

Good luck and quick and easy recovery!:grouphug:

Hi
Me too, have knocked my head twice since , one 4 months ago and one 4 weeks ago.
Although not as bad as yours, but a hit none the less.
It's. 18 months since my PCS and things are progressing but these hits can set you back some what.
I do hope you recover quickly from your latest hit, maybe a crash helm it might be in order !!
Good luck with your healing.

Oh man! Just logged in, and so sorry to see this!!!! Hoping you feel better, and that you have no more setbacks.

Thanks everyone. Still no relief from hitting my head. In fact, my cognitive symptoms have increased over the last couple days. I think its safe to say I've suffered another concussion.....

=(

Oh no! Rest! Take care.

So sorry to hear it.

Bad news, and oh no. Rest your brain and hope it gets better again.
