Is Stomach Ache After A Head Injury A Matter Of Concern?
Basically yesterday, there was a incident where I ended up getting hit in the head by a teenagers football luckily I had my bike helmet on at the time but when I got home I started having stomach pains and felt like I was going to be sick and to the point it took me a while to eat supper. A day has passed the stomach pain has gone down a bit to the point off I don’t feel sick anymore and can eat a little bit more but headache has gotten slightly worse. Is this a sign of anything wrong or am I just worrying myself?
As per my clinical experience, the stomach ache might be normal physiologic response after stress induced gastritis for a period of 6-8 hours, but if persistent later, the CT brain must be sought off.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
