This type of injury appears to be a lot more common in people who are on blood thinning medication which is something I was not aware of!

It is also more common in patients on anticoagulants or antiplalet medicationss, such as warfarin and aspirin, respectively. People on these medications can have a subdural hematoma after a relatively minor traumatic event.
