What Is The Danger In Bleeding Concussion?
My son lives out of state, I knew he injured his leg, but was told today he had a bleeding concussion. I know nothing of a bleeding concussion. Sounds bad and scares me. Could you please explain this and tell me of danger of this. Thank you

Hello,
This is not a standard medical term. If the person saying is British it might be an exclamation, "he's got a bleeding concussion" like "he's got a bleeding inside straight flush!". If there is bleeding inside the skull, this is a dire emergency since the blood pushes out the brain and this is fatal.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
