Ok I've banged my head again!! This time I banged it with the Hoover (don't ask) right on side in front of my ear but above it.. Now I know that's were a dangerous artery runs and I know from my years of googling that's the most dangerous place to hit your head! I'm panicking now I hit it about 45-50 mins ago an I think I have slight head pain above my ear there's no lump or anything. But you don't need one for a brain bleed do you? You can get them of very minor head injurys ?! I'm so scared I think I'm getting a headache someone help me ! X

You would have to hit yourself pretty hard with a hoover handle to cause injury - like someone swinging itround their head and clobbering you with it hard. You will probably get a small bruise which will be tender, but the chance of you having a brain bleed is pretty much zero imo. The stressing over it will bring on a headache though. It's just your health anxiety bluffing you that a minor injury is something more.
