Can Nasal Bleeding And Severe Headaches Be The Symptom Of Brain Injury After An Accident?

My daughter was clipped by a car three nights ago while riding her motor scooter. She was wearing a helmet, but lost consciousness. A friend took her to the hospital where she had a CT scan, She continues to have some nose bleeding and severe headaches, but has been able to work. Unfortunately she is over 1000 miles from her mother and myself. What is the likelihood of severe damage - I.e. brain or concussion damage

Hi. There is more likelihood of having a damage to brain and concussion from your history. I would advise a repeat scan and be in a hospital for attendant complications of nose bleed.
