It used to be said that people with concussions should not go to sleep for fear they would lapse into a coma and not wake up. This is no longer conventional wisdom. If you lost consciousness when you injured yourself, call your doctor- especially if you were out for more than 5 minutes. It's fine to sleep after hitting your head.
If you have hit your head hard enough to bleed or feel dizzy afterwards, you need prompt medical attention - you may have experienced a concussion - left untreated, it could be fatal. Above all things, do not go to sleep until your doctor or medical professional has evaluated the injury. Get professional medical help right now!!
It's important to rest when hit in the head, or after getting a concussion. Some people say not to sleep after being hit in the head, but they are wrong. Doctors have proven that the best thing you can do is try and sleep or rest. I myself have been concussed, several times, due to sports and an abusive father as a child. Rest was the best thing for me at those times. I hope this has been helpful!
