2. Headache: Persistent or increasing headache may indicate brain damage following a SHT.
3. Nausea and vomiting: Nausea, vomiting or dizziness may be an indication of SHT.
4. Memory loss: confusion, memory loss, or difficulty concentrating may indicate damage to the brain after a SHT.
5. Behavioral or personality changes: behavioral changes, mood swings, or depression may be an indication of SHT.

It is important to see a doctor immediately if a SHT is suspected. Only a doctor can make a diagnosis and recommend appropriate treatment.
