Can a bump on the head kill you?

Answer 1

not unless it is a hard bump on the head or you have some kind of disease. It all depends. Like a very hard bump on the head of a 75 year old who has heart failure.It will probably kill them. Another Answer It would depend on three things: one is where the person was hit (a person can be killed by being hit really hard on the temple) two would be how hard the person was hit (a feather isn't going to kill you) and three would be how strong the bones are. If the object is, persay, a soda, a thick-headed person wouldn't be harmed. But if the person has untreated osteoporosis, and their skull is a lot weaker, it may kill them. If a person you know has been hit on the head really hard, you wouldn't have enough time to log onto this website, but if you're planning ahead, then don't take chances! If they seem drowsy, dizzy, unable to think clearly, or if they're unconcious, take them to the emergency room right then. It does depend upon how hard of a bump, but even a relatively small one can cause internal bleeding into the brain that can lead to death. We lost a father of two when he hit his head on the sidewalk last month. He didn't think he was hurt, but died a few days later. YES The truth is that any bump on your body can kill you.But than again,a large scratch on the leg is also lethal if left unthreated.The human body is'nt designed to fix most of it's problems alone.A bump could be a harmless tumor that becomes cancerous in a couple of months,but if you had hit your head somewhere you should see a doctor NOW because it can cause internal bleeding and you will die.
