Had Subdural Bleed After A Fall, Has Headaches. Can I Travel?
Hi there my mother fell down steps and has subdural bleed 5mm. Never lost consciousness and no worsening of bleed and she remains with no seizures. She did have headache and nausea but cant help but think that is related to not eating she is very time oriented in her daily eating schedule. Not for medical reasons just habit. Can she fly on a 2 hour flight safely?

HI. Welcome to HCM.
Subdural 5mm bleed without loss of consciousness is nothing to worry about.
Headache and nausea can be due to both reason trauma and eating habbits.
She can do routine activities including 2 hour journey in flight safely.
just take care if she has projectile vommting anytime, otherwise everything will bw fine.
Thanking you.
