Have you ever had a concussion?

Have you ever had a mild concussion?

• I hit my head as I fainted and lost my short term memory temporarily. I felt a little slow for the rest of the day, But feel 100% now. I feel embarrassed about seeking medical assistance. Do you think I over reacted? I look back on it and think its funny, But at the time I was concerned. Have you experienced this? Do you think I over reacted?

• Answer:

  I have had a concussion and here is what you need to do. Go to the hospital rite away and get x-rays to make sure you do have a concussion in stead of just thinking you do.. That is not uncommon... By the time you get home, keep ice on it for 20-30 minutes at least and then about 3-4 ours later do it again. do this about 3 times a day for 4-5 days or until pain goes away... Bye this time go back to the hospital and make sure with the doctor that you are okay and then you should be fine...
