Typical....

So I put a gushy post on Faceache about my old dog and how great he is at his age and how lucky I am to still have him and my other oldie still alive, fit and healthy.

Ten minutes later he is so excited about breakfast that he hurls himself against a door, which then smashes into my forehead. I am now sporting a comedy Tom and Jerry bump and - not that I am a hypochondriac - now freaking out that any slight ache or pain on my body is a sign that stroke or aneurysm is imminent....

Any tips for head injury aftercare, most welcome.....luckily I have a bag of peas in the freezer in work from the time his spawn dragged me up a set of steps and banjoed my knee.

I saw your post on Facebook and thought ouch. I had a huge lump on top my head once that I got from standing up under a metal fire escape. I couldn’t believe how fast it came up, it was almost cartoon fast! But as far as aftercare goes I can’t help, I just ignored it and hoped for the best. Not the best thing to do though, I am sure someone sensible will be able to help you with advice.

I took some paracetamol. It hurts quite often as I spend most of my day frowning

Gaffa tape forehead? ???

Sorry, I shouldn't laugh, but why oh why do we end up with something like this straight after a positive?

Thanks, I slapped some on this morning. Looking for the tablets too! I also have green lipped mussel gel, Tiger Balm and Fastum, if you were wondering how accident prone I am ?
