Had Head Injury In 2007 Now Having Nose Bleed And Bipolar. Is This Happening Because Of Injury ?
my boyfriends son fell 15ft back in 2007. he hit his head , he has started havind nose bleeds that take awhile to get stopped. he also seems bippolar at times, could these be from his injury. I work as a cna on a nuero/stroke floor and u see what frontal lobe injuries result in, usually we get the sh*t beat out of us.the boy is 10 it happen in 07, now he has a knot on side of his neck below his ear . He will not listen to his father, could any of this be related to the fall or is it typical 10 yr old

Hello!
As he fell in 2007 and this neck swelling appeared in 2011, I think there will be no relation between this swelling and a past injury. So, don't think about this. You should consult to an ENT specialist for this neck swelling. It can be due to infection in the parotid gland ( a salivary gland situated bellow the ear). Have a nice day!
