What Are The Symptoms Of A Concussion?

I recently tripped and fell over a stair hitting my head. I have small indent on top of my head. I fell about two and half hours ago and I m not sick to my stomach, my pupils are not dialated, I didn t bleed. No blurry vision, just a little tired. Is there anything I should be looking for other than these symptoms for a concussion?

Hello,

The symptoms of concussion could be anything from severe headache to imbalance to confusion or double vision. Concussion is the thing to worry about. If within 24 hours after injury, you have the above mentioned symptoms, get a CT scan repeated to rule out intra cranial bleeding.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Haleema Yezdani, General & Family Physician
