Is My Bad Memory Related To A Previous Head Injury?
A few year ago my brother was hitting rocks with a wooden bat. I guess I was standing to close and he hit me in the forehead and knocked me out. I awoke on my mothers bed with a big dent in my forehead. It took a few days to go away but I ve noticed (5 years later) that I have a terrible memory. It s only been getting worse and I m concerned that it had something to do with that incident. Any comments??

Hello. I have gone through your question and understand your concern
Memory impairment has many causes, but since there is a trauma with loss of consciousness, you need to plan a CT scan.
Wishing you good health
