erm...guys? what are symptoms of a concussion? :shock:

Most people who think they have a concussion are wrong and are just afraid of the thought of getting a concussion. The symptoms are as follows:

* Loss of consciousness after any trauma to the head

* Confusion

* Headache

* Nausea or vomiting

* Blurred vision

* Loss of short-term memory (you may not remember the actual injury and the events some time before or after the impact)

* Perseverating (repeating the same thing over and over, despite being told the answer each time, for example, "Was I in an accident?")

Use this website to determine whether you need to seek help or not.

I'm going to have to agree with that. Also, drowsiness. When I had a concussion up at camp I immediately became incredibly tired and almost couldn't make it back from our hike. Whatever you do, don't go to sleep and make sure that you have someone with you at all times to make sure that you stay alert and awake.

if you had any black out when it happened or definitely had some of those syptoms you should probably get checked over. If you just have a headache and nothing more you should be ok i would have thought. Just follow the advice above, it's all good.

You know Google is a good source to look up too. It is free plus the information you don't need to do anything but look it up. Surely other people thought of this, no. >>; I am just saying but you know...waiting for people reply is surely an awesome idea too! xD By the way, why do you need to know about this? o.O; If you're having a medical problem maybe you should go to the doctor.

I think it's best that you still have someone with medical knowledge check you over. Even if they're not a proper doctor, it's so that just in case.

memory loss is also thrown in there, soooooo. you know. if you cant remember your name, your probly have a concussion. XD

Fainting, Blackouts, out of charactor behavior.
