my husband had a cabinet fall on top of his head yesterday. he said it did not knock him out, but has been having bad headaches and when he turns his head a certain way it hurts. he said it never became a knot, it is a soft spot on the top of his head. should he go to the er?
Hi, At this stage I suggest he does not need to go to the ED. Take paracetamol and ibuprofen for pain relief. The soft spot on the top of his head is the swelling caused by the impact. This will reduce over the next few days. If the headache persists for longer than 48 hours, I would advise going to the ED for assessment. Other signs to watch for would be problems with vision, vomiting, Chat Doctor.  I hope he feels better soon.
