A member asked:

Significant headache since hitting head on low ceiling 12 days ago. feeling a lot better last 3 days. mild pain still there though. subdural hemotoma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not always: headache after head injury, even mild injury, can occur. I would highly suggest that if your symptoms have not resolved that you do indeed seek care to ensure that it is not something more significant.
