DH called me this morning when I was on the school run to say could I come home as he had slipped and hurt himself. He trod on the new non slip bath mat and the whole thing moved so he fell and whacked his head on the sink and his elbow and leg trying to catch himself. There is a slight split right behind his ear (in the crease) and he cut his elbow. He didn't lose conciousness or have any other worrying head injury symptoms apart from being a bit grumpy today and a bit of a headache. Looking on the NHS site we decided to keep an eye on him. He is feeling very achy from being bruised but has stayed awake with no issues all day. Now he is saying he will go to bed early with some paracetomol.
I'm just wondering if this is the right thing to do or if I should be getting him to A&E (not that he will go if I tell him to!). He seems fine apart from the grumpiness and the body aching.
