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.
Had A Fall On Ice. Head And Neck Sore, Tired, Nausea, Headache, Concussion. Suggest?
My dad slipped and fell on some ice a few hours ago. His head and neck are red and sore, and he said he was feeling tired, nauseous, hand had a headache with pressure to his eyes. I m fairly sure he has a concussion as I ve one one myself in the past, but I don t know at what point we should take him to a doctor. His speech and coordination appear to be ok, but I m still worried about brain injuries. What do you suggest? He is 57 years old if that makes a difference.
Hello, You should not wait and immdiately go to the doctot and make his ct scan and brain mri done. Any head injuries should not b taken lightly even if u dont have any signs and symptoms and in your fathers case u hv both and that too at this age so please visit doctor immidiately. Thanks.
