Headbanging - What has helped?

[Guest guest]

Hi. We have our first visit with a DAN Dr. in one month, but I don't know if we are going to be able to make it until then without doing other medical interventions with my son for the head banging. This weekend he banged my husband's shoulder and had a black eye, then yesterday he banged his head on the computer screen and broke it. Today he banged the edge of a chair and has a huge lump on his forehead...I'm seriously concerned that he's going to hurt himself. My question is, have any of you found a biomedical intervention that improved or stopped the head banging or did you find that even after implementing biomedical treatments, you ended up having to medicate anyway because the head banging didn't improve? Thanks in advance for the help.
