My husband fell from standing on a window seat, hit head on lower cabinet door corner (wood) in kitchen. cut is about 1.5 long, some bleeding. put an ice pac on for 10 min., cleaned the cut w/ bandaid brand antiseptic wash. Presently have a soaked in the antiseptic wasChatDoctorpress on it as it continues to bleed some. He was dizzy after cleaning, laid down and looked a little white in the face. Lying down color is back. He has a mild headache. Been about an hour since he fell. Need to know if we need to do anything further.
Hello dear As per your narration, your husband sustained head injury. The cause of dizziness with headache and paleness may be due to vasovagal attack from which he has recovered to some extent. Mild headache may be due to concussion injury. If he is having severe headache, loss of consciousness, vomiting, seizure or bleeding through ear or nose then you can consult a neurosurgeon for evaluation and imaging of brain. But It's less likely in your case. Be vigilant Hope you found the answer helpful God bless you Chat Doctor.
