A head injury can cause many problems the head. However, common problems are fractures of the head, bleeding inside the head, and just bruises but no visible problems.

Bleeding is what we think of as a serious brain injury. Bleeding can occur anywhere in the brain after a brain injury, but epidural hematoma and subdural hematoma are common. Epidural hematoma is bleeding between the skull and dura mater and subdural hematoma is bleeding between the dura mater and arachnoid mater. Intracerebral hemorrhage may occur but is uncommon. Bleeding in the head is a common problem after a head injury
Either headache, vomiting, convulsions, or fainting. Bleeding can be easily detected by a CT Scan of the Brain.

If the bleeding is minimal and the patient does not become unconscious, the patient may slowly recover if treated with medication. If the bleeding is excessive, the blood must be removed by surgery. But it all depends on the doctor's advice. If the blood is removed through operation, the patient can recover.

Many times it is seen that the patient has suffered a head injury but no broken bones or no bleeding. CT scan is completely normal. But the patient may have headaches for a long time. It is called post-traumatic headache in medicine. This pain gets better soon, but sometimes anti-depressant drugs like Amitryptiline help.
