I hit my head 24 hours ago and a doctor at the emergency room said i was ok and didn t think I needed a CT I m kinda stressing myself out should i still be worrying about a brain bleed??? My head still feels weird but he said its a minor concussion most likely
Most head injury are trivial and doesn't require CT scan. Indications for imaging are loss of consciousness, severe headache, vomiting, seizures, focal neurological deficit, drowsiness. As per your narration it seems that you doesn't require CT at present and your doctor has advised rightly. You need to rest and all symptoms may abate in few days. urgently consult doctor if any deterioration occurs. my wishes are with you.
