What is a Head Injury?

đź§  Head Injury Evaluation & Expert Neurology Care
Had a Head Injury? Don’t Take Chances.

A head injury can seem minor at first, but symptoms often develop hours—or even days—later. If you’ve had a fall, accident, or any blow to the head, it’s important to get checked by a specialist. At Consultant Corner, we help you understand what’s happening, rule out dangerous complications, and guide you safely through recovery.

 

⚠️ Warning Signs You Should Never Ignore

A head injury can affect how your brain functions—even if there’s no visible wound. Pay attention to symptoms such as:

Headache that won’t go away or keeps getting worse: This can be an early sign of concussion or bleeding inside the skull.

Dizziness, imbalance, or feeling “off”: These symptoms often signal disruption in brain pathways that control coordination.

Nausea or vomiting: A common indicator of increased pressure in the brain.

Trouble focusing, remembering, or processing: Many patients describe feeling “foggy” or unusually slow after a head injury.

Sensitivity to light or blurry vision: These can appear even days later and suggest irritation of the brain after trauma.

If any of these symptoms appear or worsen, it’s safest to be evaluated promptly.

 

âť— Why Getting Checked Matters

Head injuries are unpredictable. What feels like a simple bump can sometimes lead to:

  • Concussion and lingering post-concussion symptoms
  • Internal bleeding (epidural or subdural hematoma)
  • Skull fractures
  • Persistent headaches, memory issues, mood changes, or sleep problems
Early evaluation can prevent dangerous complications and dramatically improve recovery outcomes.
