Your forehead is backed up by your skull so you'll probably be fine. You're going to have a nice goose egg and maybe a pretty bruise though.
If you are really concerned these are the immediate signs and symptoms of a concussion:
* Confusion
* Amnesia
* Headache
* Loss of consciousness
* Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
* Drowsiness
* Nausea
* Vomiting
* Unequal pupil size
* Convulsions
* Unusual eye movements
* Slurred speech
Delayed signs and symptoms may include:
* Irritability
* Headaches
* Depression
* Sleep disturbances, including insomnia or difficulty waking
* Fatigue
* Poor concentration
* Trouble with memory
* Getting lost or becoming easily confused
* Increased sensitivity to sounds, lights and distractions
* Loss of sense of taste or smell
* Difficulty with gait or in coordinating use of limbs
That said, grab a bag of ice or some frozen veggies and you'll feel better in a bit.
Uhm...You should be fine....Get an ice bag and lay down for a spell..

kick yourself.
ummmm ok
Ice it.
just take a pain reliving pill get some ice and just lay down and relax in your bed that's all just come down
Put some ice on it and just relax. You are obviously fine if you can come to the computer to ask for advice on what just happened.
You're fine. I just got hit in the head a few days ago by a thick board.
Next time....duck!
Yes, that is a very life threatening situation.
you'll be fine....take advil......then go 2 bed
If you are concerned get some frozen peas out of the freezer and put them on it to take the swelling down also stay awake for the next 8 hrs.
~is there blood? chances are...u just got a big knot on the knoggin! no big deal. just a little embarassment if someone sees it. be more careful!
just ice it for a while. it may turn into a bruise, but that is just blood collecting in that one area. Its normal. The ice will slow the blood flow causing the swelling to stop.
Blame the local negro boy, they're always doing this kind of thing anyway and besides, they think it's cool. =)
Racism and fact are two totally different things. In this case, it is fact. =)
i do not think it is anything serious, but if you do experience some nausea or dizziness, then i would advise you to go to the ER
get an ice pack, get some rest, if you have a head ach, see a doctor just in case, never be to careful
Take a deep breath and don't let anything bother it, keep ice on it. And make sure to sooth it. But if it gets any worse, and you faint or something call a doctor, or somebody you know!!
you will be ok
apologize to yourself
reject the apology
and kick yourself out!
(not!! you will be fine)
Merrry Christmas
aww I've done stuff like that too dont feel bad. just ice it. see how it goes. if u get nauseated or dizzy don't sleep for a wile cuz concussion but if not then u should be OK. defiantly do ice for the swelling. was it a big ipod or just a nano?
you're fine just don't let it happen again. be prepared to answer a lot of questions about the black and blue spot you'll have on your forehead.
hit 37*4, it won't reverse itself anymore.
Slap yourself back. Why should you have to take that kind of stuff?
I THINK YOU SHOULD TURN YOURSELF IN FOR SELF-ABUSE !
Put ointment on it. There's going to be a bruise. After you put on ointment, it'll feel better and THEN you put on ice. Ice doesn't help it, it just makes it feel better.
Ice a few times a day 15 on 15 off maybe call your doctor for advice. Ibuprofen is an inflammatory i dint know if that will help but i take it every time anything is swollen.
Well, first of all, excuse me, but the last time I checked, if I threw my iPod, then it'll probably be broken, by now, and so, you'll be paying for a new one, so good luck..and second of all, I don't think iPods all of sudden change directions, and hits you on the forehead. Third of all, you don't sound too hurt, it's not like you're going to get rushed to the emergency hospital, and dying any day now because of that, so I suggest you just put an ice pack or some ice on it, and it'll be fine.
you ought to drink a few shots of old crow whiskey, take 7-8 vicodin 500 mg and then rub icy-hot on the spot you got hit, and take 17 tbsp of nyquil, put a blanket and pillow in the bathtub, turn on the bathroom fan, turn off the lights and kick back in the tub/bed... you ought to feel perfect when(if?) you wake up tomorrow.
Well, I am not a doctor, so please take this with a grain of salt and common sense.
You seem to be pretty lucid so it does not appear that there has been any injury to your brain. If you are not having any trouble seeing, then you are probably okay.
Next time you get frustrated, kick a door - no wait, you might break your foot.
Just kidding. You seem to be fine.
If you start having trouble seeing, or if you develop a really really bad headache or your balance changes, call an ambulance.
I think you will be ok. The swelling will go down. But the most important question; How is your ipod?
