Dear
Welcome to HCM
Are you a medical student?
Then you will learn about it in third and fourth year.
It is possible to have hallucinations if there is injury if there is occiputal injury.
But that is just one possibility.
There is so many other possibilities like nerve damage etc
Because he met with an accident and he has head injury, in itself, defines so many possibilities.
Hallucination and impaired speech are just tip of the iceberg.
May god bless him.
