Brief Answer:
You can use hair XXXXXXX if there is no wound.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to the "Ask a Doctor" service.
I have read your query.
Your problems with remembering things are linked to a mild concussion.
Since 5 days passed and you had a normal CT scan when it comes to any brain damage, you should not be worried much more than necessary.
You can use hair XXXXXXX if there is no visible wound on the area that you were hit.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you doctor. I get panick attacks. Then i do deep breathing . Had a TIA 3 years back and docs say now to forget about that incident and go on. I am on noklot and rosavastin. But after the head knock they stopped the blood thinner for 5 days.
Brief Answer:
I would explain as follows.
Detailed Answer:
Hello again.
I agree with the advice of your Doctor about postponing the blood thinner for few days.
This way the possibility of late hemorrhages, such as subdural hematoma, is minimized.
Don't worry, clinically and by imaging studies, there is nothing serious in your case.
Hope this helps.
Take care.
