    I fell on the ice/snow
    About 5.5 hrs ago I fell on snow/ice and landed on my back and hit my head. I didn't lose consciousness and hopped right up. No dizziness. I do have a slight headache, but I actually had one before that and had taken meds an hour or two before the fall. Now my neck and hip are sore. Anything I should look for regarding head or neck injuries?

    Expect to be sore more in the morning, but normally no issue, esp if there is nothing appearing wrong now
