Hi,
Thanks for being on healthcaremagic.com

You don't need to be scared since you are not having any symptoms. A brain scan can be done but is pointless in doing in healthy symptomatic individuals. If there is any injury inside, it usually results in acute symptoms. Since you are fine, there is no need to worry.
