A member asked:
I tapped my left side head with my finger a few times hard. did i cause g-d forbid, any brain damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Tapping your head with your finger, no matter how hard, will not damage your brain. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
