    If I had a head accident, which resulted in a nasty cut, swelling and bruising, and a 2 week long headache, what is the most likely diagnosis?

    Ps - vision for reading has become progressively worse since too

    Seriously Bro, See a Dr.

    I keep hearing that. Gonna give it a little longer and see how it goes. Reading glasses have definitely made a difference, i can now read better than my 3 year old daughter again :D

    It's probably a concussion. Slap a bandaid on it. You'll be fine soon.

    Jessie, that's a tough one. ER has the craziness and the trauma. ICU has the patients that are in very serious condition and are always trying to die on you.
