A head injury or cerebrovascular illness may be the cause of acute intracranial hemorrhage. Making a precise diagnosis is challenging since diagnostic imaging might be challenging in both situations. In this case report, an aneurysmal rupture related head injury resulted in an acute subdural hematoma (SHD) after the patient lost consciousness. A 54-year-old male was found in a state of unconsciousness on the ground and was brought to the nearest hospital. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed an oblique fracture involving the bilateral frontal and right parietal bones along with underlying SDH, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and hemorrhagic contusion along with midline shift. The case report highlights the rehabilitation journey of a patient with acute SDH and SAH. The patient can now sit independently and stand with minimal assistance. Vasospasm detection, prevention, and treatment need to be the norm at that time. This case demonstrates the effectiveness of a comprehensive rehabilitation approach in promoting mobility and independence for patients with traumatic brain injuries.
