Put some ice on it and take some Advil or Ibuprofen it will help with the swelling.

i put some ice on it, it happened about an hour and a half ago, it swelled down a little bit, but its still big.

i still got ice on it right now. But i dont got advil, i feel fine though my head dont hurt it only hurt the split second that it hit w/e i hit it happened so fast, but i immediately jumped up when it i hit my forhead and smacked the back of my head on the top of my fender well.

the back of me head hurt more than my foread and i felt a weird sensation and turned around and ask my dad if there was a bump on my head and he seen my forhead and said "holy "

Awesome dent in your forehead Danny

This breaking tools nonsense must be going around. We broke a 3/4" drive ratchet trying to turn a grain leg backwards at ADM the other day. Of course the leg had an anti reverse brake and we were using a 4' cheater so that probably didn't help. Pretty funny listening to the whole thing thou .. Justin started grunting real loud then it sounded like a gun shot then the carnage hit the concrete followed by some colorful language. Justin almost ended up with a lump just like Danny's.

Hope there is no permanent damage Danny, good thing you have a hard head.
