Yesturday my friend and i were doing Physical Theatre and she dropped me and my head. I didnt get knocked out but i felt a bit dizzy, sick and had massive headaches. Today i still have a headache but not dizzy. Do i have a concussion?

Answers:

it sounds like you do! you must tell a parent, relative or guardian or friend to watchooht for you as minor head injuries can turn nasty! you need to either watch out yourself or whoever is around you for any signs that you have more than a minor head injury, drowsiness that gets worse, vomiting more than 3 times, headache that gets much worse, sensitive to bright lights etc.slurring your words or becoming very aggressive etc, if you have any of these symptoms, you need to seek emergency medical help! if however you feel ok apart from a bit of a headache, just take paracetamol&ibuprofen regulary to ease any symptoms etc.

One way to tell if you have a concussion is to have a friend or family member shine a flashlight in your eyes. If your pupils don't contract, you probably have a concussion.



Yes you probably do and no do not do the dance performance you need to see a doctor a get checked out and do not do anything physical until all symptoms have gone away and have stayed away.



You most likely do have a minor concussion, just take some advil or ibuprofen and watch it

I've had four concussions



if you have a headache then yes you do have a percussion
