Need to se MD: You had a head trauma and few days later you feel heavyness in head.You need to be evaluated by your doctor and may need a cat scan to rule out a subdural hematoma from a slow bleed in the subdural space.

I hit my head. I would not consider it a big hit, but i moved my head fast a little. The next day (today) i noticed a slight pressure feeling in my head, and it is stronger now. Can this be a concussion if i dont have more symptoms?

I have I.I.H., C.S.F. pressure getting worse. Ears/head/back, eyes esp. when I look left/right. Hit head, now fluid from outer edges of eyes.

Hit head a week ago Dr said mild concussion. Bumped head again 4 hrs ago. Not hard. Slight head pressure for a bit. Feel ok now. Any need for concern?

I hit my head on something and now I feel foggy, sleepy, have some short term memory issues, and head pressure. ER? I think i might have a concussion.
