my daughter fainted and hit her head on the cement. she had no idea how she was put in a car and taken to the hospital but her friends told her she was throwing up in the car and her eyes were open. Her head has been very sore since. She was nauseated for about a week. The doctor says the hard hit on her head has caused her vertigo. is this possible?I am worried about brain swelling or even bleeding in the brain.
I am surprised why she has not been taken for ct head. All these symptoms are suggestive of brain involvement. Though it can be just a concussion, but she needs to be investigated. In the first place why she fainted is a cause of worry. Then a hit. Please arrange for her ct at the earliest & see a doctor. Your worry of internal bleeding or swelling might come out true. Hurry up another delay may cause more complications. God bless.
