A member asked:
If a person has got any damage in brain because of anything hit hard to head...what would be the symptoms and after how many hours the symptoms will be noticed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Head injury: With a head injury, the short term symptoms over the first few hours would be headache, nausea, vision changes, memory loss. Over the next few weeks you might experience change in sleep patterns, more memory loss, word finding trouble, irritable mood, more headaches. The chance of having symptoms increases if there was a loss of consciousness but can happen even if you weren't "knocked out"
