Understanding the Condition
About Head Injuries
A blow to the head can bruise the brain, cause bleeding inside the skull or crack the skull bone. Blood collecting inside the skull presses on the brain, and symptoms can worsen over hours. That is why every serious head injury needs a CT scan and close observation, even if the person seems fine at first.
Common Causes
- Two-wheeler and road accidents, especially without a helmet
- Falls from height or stairs
- Falls in elderly people on blood thinners
- Assaults
- Sports and work injuries

Common Questions
Head Injury FAQs
Does every head injury need a CT scan?
Not every minor bump does, but loss of consciousness, vomiting, severe headache, confusion, fits or blood thinner use need a CT scan.
Can symptoms appear hours after a head injury?
Yes. Bleeding can build up slowly, so the person should be watched for 24 hours and brought back if symptoms appear.
When is surgery needed?
When a blood clot or swelling presses on the brain, surgery may be needed to remove it and save the brain.
Does wearing a helmet really help?
Yes. A properly fastened helmet greatly reduces the risk of serious brain injury in two-wheeler accidents.
Is head injury care available at night?
Yes. Emergency, CT, ICU and neurosurgery support are available 24×7 at Pluto Hospital.
