Intracranial Hemorrhages

Intracranial hemorrhages refer to bleeding that occurs inside the skull, affecting the brain or its surrounding structures. This can happen due to various reasons, including head injuries, high blood pressure, or blood vessel malformations. The bleeding can increase pressure in the skull, leading to symptoms such as headaches, confusion, or difficulties with movement and speech. There are different types, such as subdural, epidural, and intracerebral hemorrhages, each based on where the bleeding occurs. Prompt medical evaluation and treatment are crucial to minimize damage and ensure the best possible recovery.
