Shower head fell on my head in the shower

Right on my right temple. Didn’t lose consciousness but it was bloody sore and it gave it a right whack.

I am long overdue a good nights sleep but am worried about going to sleep in case I’ve given myself concussion. I can’t really tell if I feel 100% normal because I had a glass of wine after dinner, I do feel a bit lightheaded but it could just be down to that rather than the shower mishap. Do I need to give up worrying and try get some sleep or should I call 111?

If someone used the showerhead as a weapon and hit you with some force behind it - then, if at all possible, I would get it checked out.

If it fell on you, no matter how much it hurt, it is unlikely to do much damage. It's clunky with edges, it will hurt but, other than a bit of bruising, real damage is unlikely

I cant see it would have done actual damage? How far did it fall?

Unless it’s a solid gold one I think you’re ok.

Oh goodness OP, you need to grow up.

Seriously.

Unless you have some contemporary shower where the solid concrete shower head is thirty foot above your head I doubt it will have caused concussion, a brain bleed or a skull fracture.

You’ll be fine

This happens to me two or three times most showers. It's so bloody annoying but I only seem to remember it needs replaced when I'm under it!

I honestly don't know how some people make it through the day!
