Hey just concerned, how are you doing?

Smaller hematomas may not require removal of the blood. Signs and symptoms of bleeding into the brain may include unconsciousness, headache, listlessness, imbalance and vomiting.

An intracranial hematoma occurs when a blood vessel — either an artery or a vein — ruptures between your skull and your brain. The collection of blood (hematoma), possibly clotted, compresses brain tissue.

In adults, most recovery occurs within the first six months, and smaller improvements can occur for two years. An incomplete recovery after that time is usually because of brain damage.

Don't drink alcohol until you've recovered fully. Alcohol may hinder recovery and can put you at risk of further injury.

Doctor: I am, bit by bit.

Fluid (balanced preparation of salts and water) intake helps correct electrolyte imbalance, which may stop vomiting. This means drinking fluids, which may be the farthest thing from your mind, but it is vital to prevent yourself from becoming dehydrated from fluid loss.

If your kidneys do not respond to treatment, and adequate kidney function does not return, you will need to undergo dialysis. Most people with acute kidney failure get better when the cause of the kidney failure is removed or treated and don't require dialysis.

Alcoholic ketoacidosis (AKA) is characterized by nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dehydration, and an acetone-like odor on the person's breath. Ketone bodies are acids that accumulate in the blood changing its acidity and causing the person to feel even sicker, thus perpetuating a vicious cycle.

Many alcoholics benefit from longer-term rehabilitation programs, day treatment programs, or outpatient programs. These programs involve education, therapy, addressing problems contributing to or resulting from the alcoholism, and learning skills to manage the alcoholism over time.

Steady pressure of thumb onto lower leg for 10-20 seconds. If depression remains after removal of pressure fluid retention is indicated.
