What to do if you fall and your scalp hematoma is too big?

It is recommended to go to the hospital to improve the CT scan of the skull and brain to determine whether there is a combination of skull fracture and intracranial hemorrhage. If it is combined with skull fracture or even intracranial hemorrhage, then we need to ask professional neurosurgeon to evaluate whether surgical treatment is needed. If there is no skull fracture or intracranial hemorrhage, and the hematoma is purely a scalp hematoma, conservative observation and local warm compresses can be used to promote the absorption of the hematoma. Alternatively, after the hematoma has liquefied, a local hematoma aspiration may be performed to accelerate the reduction of the hematoma. If accompanied by headache symptoms, can also be oral ibuprofen, diclofenac and other painkillers symptomatic supportive treatment. If a large scalp hematoma occurs after a fall, it is recommended to go to the hospital to improve the CT of the skull and brain to check whether there is a more serious combined injury, so as to avoid delaying the condition or even endangering the life of the patient.
