Gudmorning sir my name is Akshat. I am 26 yrs old. My query is that on 20 of september i climb on a tall stool and while climbing my feet get struck to the base of stool. it is very much paining but i continue to climb and reach the top but after that i do not remember any thing. when i open my eyes my family member told me thai i am fallen from the top and my head struck on the floor but i dont remember any thing at that time i feel that i woke up from a deep sleep. 2 to 3 days i feel that any heavy thing is put up on my head.

Dear Mr Akshat

> The sequence of events is highly suggestive of head injury. There could have been internal bleeding then / or later outside the brain coverings, that has increased in size subsequently.
> This should NOT be TAKEN LIGHTLY - You MUST SEE A NEUROLOGIST IMMEDIATELY - You need an examination, followed by CT scan of your brain. If there is nothing, well and good / Treatable condition should not be missed... It is better to be safe than sorry

Take care
Good luck
