Hi,

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
