Always in books and movies people get amnesia and then they hit their head again and . . . MAGIC they can remember again. does that actually work?Can amnesia be cured by a second hit to the head?
Absolutely not. It will either make the situation worse or nothing will change.Can amnesia be cured by a second hit to the head?
No. In fact the second blow can be a lot more dangerous than the first. Football players who get " dinged" they call it, need to be pulled off the field. There have been quite a few cases of a second blow after a concussion causing sudden, fatal brain swelling.
As far as the amnesia goes, a blow to the head might affect amnesia on an emotional basis, but not from an organic lesion.Can amnesia be cured by a second hit to the head?
No not usually; it usually makes things worse.
