Hit

Hi

There is one guy in hospital and he's wife is giving birth to his first child. Then he's wondering: "somebody I love is in pain. Who do I hit? I cannot hit doctors and nurses who are tring to bring my child into the world"

--- Does "hit" mean to complain in this case?

No, it actually means hit (punch). He is angry that his beloved wife is in pain, so he wants to hit somebody.
