Hello
It seems from the history that your nephew got injured while riding a bull.
Following injury he is having dent in the head with stupor and headache.
These symptoms indicate head injury and he requires evaluation by CT scan to look for the hemorrhage in the brain or swelling in the brain as a result of injury.
Hence I advice to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly at the earliest.
Thank you
