Probably connected: When individuals recall night mares, it is usually related to disrupted sleep, which can occur in your situation from either the emotional trauma of the head injury, but more likely from a mild concussion, which would cause lingering headaches, feeling fatigued, have problems with short term memory or calculations. Get evaluated if this is the case.

Head trauma may: mean a concussion. The dreaming and nightmares may be a manifestation. I would see your doctor just to be checked and make sure all is well. This may continue for sometime and if you get worse you again should seek medical care. BEst wishes
