A member asked:
Would a mild head injury cause brain bleeding? saw my doctor and have a mild concussion, said no ct scan is needed. could this still happen?

Exam normal: If your physical exam is normal then no need to rush to head CT. That being stated, there are a number of nagging problems that can result from even mild injury and seeing a concussion clinic may be helpful.
