How Can Headache And Fatigue After A Concussion Be Treated?
I was hit on the head about a month ago wit a large metal umbrella pole. My Dr said I had suffered a concussion. I still get headaches and tired wanting to sleep, and I m depressed. I ve been resting but trying to do my regular life. I am retired so I don t work. What do I need to get better?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If all these symptoms are after the trauma to the head, then I would advise getting a CT scan of the brain done.
Once this is normal, then you can use some paracetamol for your pain. However, I usually ask such a patient to get a scan of the brain done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman
