What Are The Symptoms Of A Concussion?
Question: I was bent over cleaning the floor, went to stand up and hit the top of my head pretty hard on a glass table. I have had no dizziness/didn't see stars, don't feel hazy and can see straight. Have a cold so feel a little off already which makes determining if it's bad difficult. No bump and icing the area for 20 mins. Do I need to see a doctor yet or wait?
Brief Answer:
No need to worry about.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Since you didn't experienced any of concussion symptoms ( loosing consciousness, dizziness, nausea, vomitng, headaches, amnesia etc. ) you don't have to worry about.
Just rest and if you notice any of the above signs, then you need to see your Doctor.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
