Hi, I have a couple of questions about a possible skull fracture as a child ( I was 10). I fell underneath a merry-go-round as it was going around, and when I started to get up, I was hit by a piece of angel iron on the bottom side of it. My folks didn't take me to the Doctor, but I remember I had one heck of a head and some bleeding. I'm now 57 years old, and I can now feel a dent in one spot, and like ridge that extends towards my forehead from that dent. I'm wondering would this possible skull fracture show up in a x-ray if I had one? Also, I believe I may of had a concussion from another injury from a few years ago whenI fell from about 4 ft. off the ground and landed on my pelvis, which then caused my head to snap back and then bounce off the cement. I had a headache for weeks. Do concussions show in xrays? I no longer have the headaches, but I would like to find out if these injuries did any damage that could possibly be a long term problem. How do I approach a doctor to get him to authorize a cat-scan to see what may of happened from my injuries? Thank you much for you input
