Forehead injury

2018-10-08 07:17:26
Today morning while getting down the bus, the hydraulic doors closed suddenly. Hinges of the door broke down and hit my forehead very severely. There was some screws protruding from the door, and one such screw hit my forehead (above eyebrows) with a severe impact. Bleeding occurred, I went to a hospital within 20 mins and got dressing done. Took a TT injection. Doc told that it was a deep puncture and if I experience any vomiting, I should get a CT scan done. Now I'm experiencing slight vomiting sensation but didn't vomit. The would is deeply cut and I can feel it. But there's no much pain. Is there any chances of skull injury? Is it something to worry about?

If you are having vomiting or dizziness or headaches anything of this sort, then get a NCCT head done. Head injury should be taken seriously until proved otherwise
Next Steps
see a neurologist or neurosurgeon if vomiting is there or dizziness or headaches
