Suggest Treatment For Loss Of Memory After Traumatic Brain Injury
It is quite possibly due to trauma
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using HealthcareMagic.
I read your query with keen interest and understand your concerns.
After a trauma, loss of memory (anterograde amnesia) is quite common and this becomes more common when there is intoxication. First of all her denial of fall and subsequent events can be clearly explained on the basis of her intoxication itself leave aside the trauma from the fall.
We as doctors believe what patient says (sometime the person accompanying) and make a diagnosis on their basis of available information. I hope you understand that doctors do not have investigating capacity and rely on the information provided by the patient (yes we suspect when something is out of order or there is manipulation). If somebody hides some part of information or lacks that information (more likely explanation in regard to your female friend due to alcohol intoxication) the diagnosis is made according to available information. I mean to say that chances of misdiagnosis are very high in both situations (hiding information or not aware of information).
Regarding helping your male friend I think you should communicate in affirmative tone that being alone is never a indication of sexual assault and nobody have seen anything related to it. Having backache and loss of bowel movements after three months is unbelievable complication after a single anal intercourse.
I hope I am able to answer you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
The height of deck definitely have impact
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.
If the height of deck is more the chance of trauma is more and so the anterograde amnesia.
In addition the opening between two surfaces have likely to cause kind of stretching over the limbs and so backache.
I think both of your observation are important.

Hello,

I have no issue with number of questions and you can ask any number of questions.
The current post is like a information and not a questions. Having said this I like to confirm that your assumptions are completely true as haemorrhoids are the known complication of excessive diarrhoea, constipation and laxative use. Her food pattern over a period of time along with laxative use could have contributed to the haemorrhoids.
Regarding the back pain I again affirm your interpretation.
