Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Extreme Drowsiness After Accidentally Hitting The Head?
I hit the back of my head falling to the ground to concrete, i feel good and functional, but the only thing is that i feel sleepy. What can i do or what do you recommend me to do. The only thing that worries me is the fact that i feel a little sleepy since i hit my head over time
Drowsiness related to the incident might be over in 24-48 hours. In such cases, there can be other symptoms like severe headache, vomiting or visual disturbances also. After this period is over, your present symptoms are unlikely related to head injury. If the symptom is worrying, kindly see your doctor for evaluation
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
