It depends on how hard you bump your head. If you bump it really hard and you have on of the following:-
- Internal bleeding as a result of the bang and the brain itself bumps against the skull internally and starts bleeding.
- You had a prexisting weak spot in a blood vessel in the brain which ruptured as a result, filling the brain cavity with blood
- A pre-existing clot in the brain breaks free as a result and lodges in a place that blocks access to critical brain areas, denying it blood.
than Yes. It's fairly easy for an emergency medical facility to identify if an aneurysm is likely, so its best to seek medical attention if you suspect you may have one. Some of the signs of something wrong is a very big bump on the head, headache that's getting wose, pupils of different sizes or very wide pupils, disorientation etc.
