I Bumped My Head 2 Weeks After My Transplant

Hi Dr Rassman, big fan of your blog, lots of info very helpful!

I had an fue transplant with a good clinic about 3.5 weeks ago. On day 14 I bumped my head on my left temple, not very hard. I wouldn’t of even paid attention to it if I hadn’t undergone an HT 14 days prior. Anyway no blood or visible damage to the skin occured although it may of been slightly pink (it was pink anyway because of the op). Could this of caused any damage to the new grafts at all? My patient advisor says its unlikely, but I wanted an opinion from somebody else like yourself.

Although there wasn’t any bleeding or even a scratch, could this damage what the grafts are doing under the skin?

Many thanks

I would doubt that you did any damage. Two weeks after your procedure, I wouldn’t be concerned about a slight bump to the head.
