WWYD - bad headaches after fall yesterday

I had two falls roller skating yesterday and banged my coccyx hard.

I didn't bang my head during the falls but yesterday, about an hour after the falls, I developed a banging headache. Obviously the rest of me is quite achey too.

I did manage to sleep OK last night but the headache came back shortly after waking up. Ibuprofen has alleviated the headache for about half an hour.

Is this normal after a fall or do i need to seek medcal attention?

Thanks

I think you should get advice, persistent headache following a fall that jarred the spine doesn't sound right.

Thanks, I am going to the GP this morning
