Suggest Treatment For Bruised Knot On Head With Memory And Vision Problems Post A Fall

I fell 6 days ago in a parking lot and the only thing I remember is the Whack sound when I hit the pavement. I lost memory for a bit, but I was told I was never unconscious. I have a knot on the top of my head which is bruised. I went to my PCP and hat a CT scan done which showed no bleed, this was performed 3 days after the incident. I did have a doozy of a bruise. Now, as time as passed, I m having extreme balance issues, I fall into walls to catch myself and stagger so I m starting to walk a lot more diligently. My legs are very weak and I have a difficult time getting up out of a chair. My vision has seemed to have changed for the worse. I m getting scared but don t want to seem like a hypochondriac in going to the ER. My doctor put me on brain rest but there is only so much resting I can do. I already am sleeping deeply more than normal. I don t even hear my boyfriend get out of bed and talk to me. It s all starting to bother me. I feel as if I m floating around in outer space. And I do have dark bruises on my legs, I assume from the initial fall. Any advice?

Hello There

After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that post intercrwnial bleeding takes months to recover , you have to be very patient with your recovery. Kindly consult your neurologist personally for you leg bruises and get you INR checked.

Hopefully this information will guide you properly.

Kind Regards
Dr Bhanu Partap
