Ignoring Head Injuries Can Cause Permanent Damage (Dramatic Health)

"it took me about two weeks before I was finally back on my feet." An 18 yr old ignores a traumatic head injury, only to feel increasingly worse. When he finally goes to the doctor he finds he has a worsening concussion. He advises to seek medical help at any sign of dizzyness or nausea associated with a head injury.

A good friend of mine fell in the bath tube and hit the back of his head. He folded up a towel and went to bed with it under his head. His friends found him unconscious the next morning. He never woke up and died a week later.
