A member asked:
Could an ipad falling 2 ft onto the top of your head cause a slow brain bleed? happened last week. diagnosed w vertigo today. didn't know if related
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Head trauma can produce a slow bleed, but symptoms are progressive and unlikely to consist of vertigo alone. Vertigo is not a diagnosis. It is a symptom which may represent any one of a number of underlying problems ( problems in the inner ear, vestibular nerve or in brain itself.). Best to check with your doc so that you understand the cause and specific treatment of your vertigo.
