Does Elbow In The Eye Cause Concussion?

I was playing basketball and got hit near my eye by my temple by a girls elbow. It really hurts. My head also hurts too. There is a sharp pain in my head when I move my eyes or move really fast. I am overly tired and don t feel like moving. Could I have a conclusion?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. It depends from the force that hit your head. Acording to your symptoms, I would say yes you may have concussion. Rest, OTC drugs ( Paracetamol) should help. If you experience nausea, vomits, worsening headaches you should consult your primary care Doctor. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
