hello sir, my wife age 35 year has moving pain in her head. After CT scan and MRI it is found that there is subacute subdural hematome of 5 mm in right and 3 mm in left side. what kind of treatment is required ? is any medicine is available to dilute the clotting of blood ?
Hello, There isn't any medicine to make that blood go away. When there is a larger quantity of blood surgery may be done, but doesn't seem to be necessary for that size of the hematoma.  The blood will eventually be broken down and absorbed with time, the issue is whether there will be any more bleeding, for that purpose neurological evaluation and repeat imaging is usually required.  Also in preventing more bleeding the cause of the hematoma must be clarified, has there been any trauma to explain the bleeding?  If not tests to search for coagulation disorders must be done, spontaneous bleed in a 35-year-old is very exceptional in the absence of trauma, an underlying cause must be investigated. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
