Hi, my grandma is 65 years kid and she slipped, fell and hit her head on my stair step going outside. She thought she bit her tongue off because it was numb but we checked an its fine. The thing Im worried about is her head. It was bleeding pretty badly but not enough for stitches. Im still scared though shes 65. But the good news is shes not acting weird except that she has a small headache and when she hit her head she seemed in shock. I dont know what to do she says shes fine but I dont want her to go to sleep and not wake up you know?
Hello dear thanks for your query at Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. Elderly women with bleeding trauma, headache and shock like symptoms indicate severe symptoms. My recommendation would be got her physically examined by doctor and if necessary further investigation like CT scan might be needed for knowing severity of the disease. Regards.
