Could Bump And Laceration On Scalp Cause Concussion?
i slipped in bathroom and hit head last night in bathroom on the edge of a wall. I have bump and a laceration on scalp under hair. I didn t lose consciousness, not feeling dizzy. But obvious pain where I hit my head. I m out of town and traveling for work and flying tomorrow. I am having anxiety about if there could be injury to my brain that I m unaware of.

Any visual or speech problems?.. In my opinion you are absolutely fine and should stop worrying about brain injury... You should use acetaminophen to relieve pain...
