Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.

The effects of concussion can remain there for a few days and sometimes for a week or two.

As of now, you can take symptomatic treatment for pain, nausea and dizziness.

If the headaches persist, then, you should get a CT scan of the head done to rule out any internal injury to brain.

I hope my reply has helped you.

I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
