Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your problem description. I suggest you not to worry too much. Concussion occurs after a blow on the head. Delayed concussion syndrome is manifestation of some symptoms some time after the actual blow. A syndrome is combination of several symptoms.

As you had a blow which is mild, you may not have to worry. Also, the doctors would have told you if there is anything wrong. The symptoms could disappear within a week or so. It could depend on the severity of the blow. But there is nothing to worry. Be positive.

Hope this clears your doubts. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
