Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can Bruising Below The Eye Be Due To Bleeding In The Brain Due To An Accident?
On Friday I suffered a blow to the forehead that resulted in six stitches at the top corner of my forehead. On Sunday night, bruising occurred below my eye. I have been in very little pain, even though the only thing I was prescribed was Naproxen. It s been 5 days since the accident. Could I still potentially have bleeding in my brain? Never lost consciousness and there was no vomiting or bleeding from anywhere except the open wound. Do I need a CT scan?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, ideally head injury need to be sent for CT brain and this is the only way to clear the doubt even in absence of some specific symptoms it need to be get done the CT test, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
