Problem with shower or shower head

    Was taking a shower this morning when the very top of the shower head came off so the water just came out like a hose. Got the shower top back onto the shower head with a few twists but now i have a different problem. The water isn't really coming out at all. I switch on the water to full blast and only a dribble comes out. I can hear the pressure but its not coming out. I took off the shower top again and turned on the power and still there was very little pressure and any pressure there was was coming out of the side of the shower head rather than right down the middle through the opening for it.

    Something is wrong. I started off with a shower top to be reattached and now little water is materialising from the shower head so its a odd progression.

    Any ideas?

    Is it one of those shower heads that you can adjust the flow, you may have shut it completely down when you gave it a few twists.
    Try untwisting it and see what happens.

    Not working still. An adjustable shower head that adjusts to a level that doesn't allow any water whatsoever to come out would be hard to understand. I'll have to get a plumber.

    Maybe just buy a new head. Cheaper than a plumber. Same happened me before. Something slipped or broke when the shower head fell, it was inside the head so I couldn't get to it to readjust. I just bought a new head.
