@milojax75 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! Melissa, did you see a doctor or go to an emergency room right after you fell and cut your head open? Did anyone provide help when you fell? I’m asking these questions because you sound very confused and we’d like to help you.

@becsbuddy I was about to ask @milojax75 the same question as I fell about three weeks ago and split open not only my scalp but also the membrane covering my skull, and I had to be transported to emergency in an ambulance. I was given an IV antibiotic drip and a tetanus shot. Got three stitches to the membrane to cover my skull and five stitches to my scalp. I was sent home with a strong antibiotic - 500mg. pills - to be taken four times a day for a week.

@milojax75 did you have to go to the hospital or a clinic to get stitches?

In Canada we have to get a referral to see any specialist or to get any kind of testing.
