Hello.. Did you ever go to the doctor after hitting your head? There is a chance that you could have a concussion. I'm dealing with one myself now. I have had a cat scan and been to a neurologist since my injury and they tell me that it just takes time to heal. But I should be getting better each day. I'm not so plan on getting a second opinion.

Do you have any other symptoms? If so explain.. Thanks Laura

Because paintball guns hurt ????

If you continue to keep a headache that won't go away, please go see your doctor.

I have never been shot with a paintball but I've heard how bad it hurts & that the force can be quite strong.

My grandfather fell on the road (concrete) and had a place on his forehead bleeding afterwards where he bumped his head. It wasn't a really bad place but the "force" of the blow caused a tumor on his brain. He went to bed instead of going to the hospital like I asked him to.

He started developing behavior that made no sense and even got to the point that he didn't know who I was.

It took 3 ct scans before the tumor was found & he made it through surgery okay but the black lung issue he had, he didn't make it.

The point is, don't play around with it, if it's causing you problems.

With a concussion, a headache is the most common symptom.

hey thanks for the replies,
the headaches come and go now and its been over week, i saw the doc on friday just gone and he said i had a concussion, but since tuesday when i did it, if i touch that spot, a line of pain goes from the initial point to the middle of my skull but its not as sharp now...

so maybe i need another appointment with the doc....

ive been hit in the head with a paintball before and it has never compared to this!!! grrrr
