Patient's question:
Being hit on the head by a thick book about 3-4 centimeters, it started with a slight pain, and after 5-6 hours, a headache appeared, accompanied by vomiting and dizziness. Will I get a concussion?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on the described situation, vomiting may occur after a child's head is struck by external force, which could be related to a concussion or intracranial hemorrhage causing intracranial hypertension. If it is caused by intracranial hemorrhage, it is usually accompanied by repeated, severe vomiting, drowsiness, and other adverse symptoms. The cause can be confirmed through a cranial CT scan. It is recommended to first strengthen observation, and if any of these adverse reactions occur, it is best to seek medical attention promptly.
