How We Assess & Treat Head Injuries

Initial Evaluation

Our team begins with a detailed clinical assessment, reviewing symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, headache, confusion, or loss of consciousness. We examine reflexes, coordination, and pupil response to determine the severity of impact.

Diagnostic Testin

If needed, we perform immediate blood tests or imaging to rule out internal bleeding, concussion, or skull injury. Our consultants interpret results in real-time, ensuring fast, informed decisions.

Treatment & Monitoring

Most mild injuries are managed conservatively with rest, observation, and pain relief. For cuts or bruising, wound care and suturing are provided on-site. Patients receive detailed aftercare instructions and red-flag symptom guidance.

Specialist Referral (If Required)

For more complex cases, we coordinate direct referral to neurologists, imaging specialists, or hospitals, ensuring seamless continuity of care.
