Should I Be Worried As I Am Having Headache And Sore Throat After A Fall?
i had a fall almost 2 weeks ago from my bike. didn't seem serious. no real bleeding . First impact was on my arm , which went all blue. had it looked at and it is ok. I had sore throat and headache a couple of days after so assumed I had a viral infection . Sore throat is gone now, but headache is still there now, after almost 2 weeks. For the last 2 days I have been thinking I may have a concussion. Concussions are said to clear within 7-10 days. Should I get worried about this?

hello. it is highly unlikely that you have something serious, concussions generally clear in 2 weeks, however i would still recommend you consult a neurologist , just to be on the safer side.thanks
