PattyZ,

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

Starr's post is from 5 years ago.

CT Scans have limited use with concussions. Unless there are serious indicators, they are not much help. They are most beneficial at 72 hours post injury for those who exhibit symptoms of a bleed or excessive fluid pressure.

A brain bleed 2 months after the injury is extremely rare and not necessarily related to the concussion.

How are you doing ?

Have you suffered a concussion ?

Can we help you ?
