Hello.

As rightly mentioned by amom2, a CT scan is what is required at this stage. The significance of the unconsciousness is that there could be a hematoma in the skull. Often there are no immediate symptoms, but they may show up later.

I hope nothing comes up on CT and he stays fine, but you as a concerned parent should get this done.

Regards

If I were you I would follow up with a neuro and get either a CT.  MRI's are quite invasive...but cts are a lot simpler if done by the right tech.  If you can get one for him as well as an eeg that would be a good preventive course.  If anything continues and those results didn't show anything, don't give up.  I always like to think not only is there no stupid questions, but no stupid parent who, out of love and concern, looks for answers.
