A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post traumatic HA: Post traumatic headache is the most common symptom following mild head injury. Tylenol (acetaminophen) is the best immediate therapy. If concerned, see your PCP for neurological examination. CT or an MRI scan might be done to rule out a brain bleed.
