How Can severe Headache After An Injury Be Treated?
I revived a concussion a few weeks ago from a hockey injury (I was pushed then fell backwards) I was wearing a helmet. Four weeks later I am still getting headaches. I am wondering how to tell if my brain is bleeding or swelling. My scalp is sensitive to the touch and sometimes parts of my head feel warm inside. Thanks.
