==History and Symptoms==
Symptoms of subdural hemorrhage have a slower onset than those of [[epidural hemorrhage]]s because the lower pressure veins bleed more slowly than arteries. Thus, signs and symptoms may show up within 24 hours but can be delayed as much as 2 weeks.<ref name="Sanders and McKenna">Sanders MJ and McKenna K. 2001.

  • Balance problem
  • Comma
  • Blurred Vision
  • Disorientation
