Does A Headache With Stuttering Caused By Head Injury Need Medical Attention?
My son was at scout camp and during lunch, he sat in a folding chair and fell backwards and hit is head on a plastic folding table. He was unconscious for a bit and one of the other scouts threw water at him and he came too. The leaders thought he had a concussion and so they called me and he has been brought home. He has a headache, which is normal, but he also has a stutter. Is that normal? He really wants to go back to scout camp tomorrow. What do you think about the stutter and going back?

If he did not stutter before the fall and has started to stutter after that, I would like to give importance to that change and suggest you consult a Neurosurgeon or Emergency Room at the earliest
