Suggest Remedies For Walking Difficulty After Injury
Question: I slipped on ice and I hit my head hard while walking. I didn't pass out but have a goose egg on back of right side. I thought I was ok but now am having a hard time walking as my right leg and buttocks are numb and I struggle to walk. Did I start a slow bleed in my head?

Brief Answer:
Medical and imaging evaluation is necessary.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Since you used aspirine, it increases the chances of bleeding, so, you should get evaluated with a brain CT scan in order to be sure if there is bleeding or not.
Furthermore, since the leg wasn't damaged, weakness should be considered of neurological origin until proven otherwise.
Discuss with your Doctor about getting evaluated further.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind regards.
