What is it?

Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH) is a life threatening condition in which there is a sudden bleeding inside the skull or brain. There are four types of Intracranial Hemorrhage:
Epidural hematoma- an accumulation of blood between the skull and the outermost layer that covers the brain, usually following a head injury.
Subdural hematoma- an accumulation of blood on the brain’s surface, due to rapid head moving, such as in a car accident or due to child abuse. It is common in old people who tend to fall.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage- bleeding between the brain and the meninges, usually caused by trauma or aneurysm, a rupture of a blood vessel. People who have it describe it as the worst headache they ever had.
intracerebral hemorrhage - bleeding inside the brain tissue due to stroke, usually.
