Answers:
If he was knocked unconscious and is now sleepy, there is a very good chance your dad has a concussion!. He needs to get to a walk-in clinic or emergency room immediately!.

Do not let him sleep for now and do not give him any medication!.

Good luck and good health!Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's ok to let let him go to sleep, but you need to keep waking him up every half hour or so to make sure he is ok!. He likely has a concussion if he is so sleepy after hitting his head!. Did he throw up after he fell!? Any dizziness or nausea!? Let him sleep, but check on him throughout the night by waking him up every so often!. If he doesn't wake up easily than you need to take him to the emergency room!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

no after hitting your head it is best not to go to sleep for a while and watch him closely to see how he is acting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

why would you even waste time asking this question if you care about your family go to the hospital!Www@Answer-Health@Com

you should probably take him to an urgent care or doctor later just to be safe!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
