I did lightly hit with the side of my head, no bruising there. As you may recall I'm on meds to reduce blood clotting so it doesn't take much to cause a bruise. Lots of times I'll find a bruise and have no idea what I hit to cause it.
No, I didn't go to the ER and at this point it has been almost 24 hours so if there were going to be any problems they would have shown up by now I'd think. But I and DW are keeping a watch for anything out of the ordinary.
Be aware that chronic subdural hematoma can develop slowly, over weeks or months, after a minor head injury. Ask DW to watch out for any signs of confusion, and if you develop confusion or headaches, have a CT scan.
