Should I go to the hospital?
Our brain is surrounded by a hard skull. After a collision, it is difficult to judge from the appearance whether there is damage to the brain tissue. Generally speaking, if there is extensive and diffuse damage to the brain tissue, the patient's condition is often more serious; if there is local damage to the brain tissue, the patient's condition may not be as serious as it seems.
Therefore, it is best to seek medical examination as soon as possible after hitting your head!
Nausea, dizziness, headache, listlessness, drowsiness and sleepiness... These are all symptoms of brain damage . Don't delay, go to the hospital quickly.
Which part of the head is the most afraid of being touched?
The thickest part of a human's skull can reach 1 cm, and the thinnest part is only 2 mm, while the thinnest part of a child's skull is only 1 mm thick.
The bones at the back of the head are the thickest. If you fall backward, you will hit the back of your head. Although the bones here are thick, the brain will rebound after the collision, causing damage to the brain tissue in the forehead, often with more serious consequences.
The temple bones are the thinnest. Even a slap to the temple may cause bone fractures, meningeal artery rupture, intracranial hemorrhage, etc.
Whose brain is more susceptible to injury?

The brain tissue of people over 60 years old has a certain degree of atrophy. In addition, the elderly often suffer from diseases such as arteriosclerosis, cerebral ischemia, cerebral infarction, and other diseases. The compliance of brain tissue is poor. When subjected to Bleeding is easy after external impact, and the symptoms are relatively insidious. Do not be careless and delay the best treatment time.
It is related to blood sugar
Diabetic patients' cerebral blood vessels are prone to arteriosclerosis, and the blood vessels lack elasticity and are relatively fragile. Therefore, once the head is bumped, bleeding is easy. If the injury is diffuse, it can be life-threatening.
It is related to taking aspirin
Aspirin has anticoagulant effect, so people who take aspirin for a long time will have their own coagulation mechanism reduced. Once a brain injury causes blood vessels to rupture, the bleeding cannot be stopped, and the compression of brain tissue will produce a series of serious consequences.

Try to avoid using ceramic tiles for the floor at home and choose anti-slip products;
