How worried should I be and what could be wrong?!
Avatar f tn m really foggy about most of the details of the later half of my night. My friend told me I hit the back of my head really hard on a concrete wall (more than once). I vaguely think I might remember the first hit, but I have no recollection of the next couple hours, apparently I literally could not walk on my own and I vomited about 20 times. I start to remember when I got home (somewhat) because I remember vomiting another five times.

Why was this never picked up before from the er doctors.
760987 tn?1234239407 Please bear with me on this, i'll try and explain everything as much as I can. I'm into weightlifting, and I have been for almost 2 years. But about 2 weeks ago I went into the gym felling pumped and normal as usual. I started my set with a reasonably low amount of weight, 65lb dumbbell Incline Bench.
Avatar f tn Hi, How are you? Were there other parts in your body that was affected (back, legs, etc).Tingling feet may be caused by possible nerve compression. If i t persists, have this evaluated further for proper management. Complete neurological examination will help determine if this is nerve associated or not. With regards to your improved reflexes, this may also be an effect of the concussion. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Sounds like you might have a concussion. A concussion is a mild brain injury caused by a knock or blow to the head or a sudden change in motion. See a doctor just in case.
Avatar f tn The next day it wasnt bothering me too bad so I didnt go to the doctor to see if i did have a concussion. Well ever since that weekend, i have pressure headaches on the right side of my head. It hurts on the right side of my neck too and around my ear area, but this is on the right side not the left where i got hit. I've been trying to figure out what might be wrong or if it's just an allergy headache that i get everyday. I havent been to the doc yet, not sure if its serious enough..

Avatar f tn Last Fall I was hit on the left side of my head by a metal ladder. It was not a hard hit but did break the skin and bled a little bit. Following this incident I found when I leaned over my head become sore. I thought that I might just be suffering the effect or a minor concussion. Now it is almost 8 months later and feel my head is not any better.

Avatar m tn 5 days ago I took a hockey puck to the back of my head. It deflected into the bench, and I ducked but it took a bounce off the glass and struck me on the rear upper left side of my head. I had blurry vision immediately but was not unconscious. I didn't think much of it at the time.
Avatar f tn You need to go back to the Doctors. That does not sound right to me. You could have a brain bleed or severe bruising of the brain. Please don't mess with this. At our age we can't be too careful. Not that we are old or anything, just not 20.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know how long it takes for her to get back to normal. The life in her is in there somewhere, we just don't see it yet. I'm worried we may never. The Vet says to give it time. That is what I'm doing, but I've never had this happen.
1118437 tn?1259049741 ve heard doctors say that I either pinched or bent the nerve that runs along the top in the brain which in that case COULD result in getting my smell back. (I have heard of people that after 12 years of loss of smell have gotten it back by either hitting their head (again) or because it just came back out of the blue. I don't know if i buy that) OOORRRRR the nerve could be separated, which would result in that I do not have a chance. I know that there is no way to know for sure.
Avatar m tn my father was in a motorcycle accident and hit the right front side of his head and can now not taste or smell anything he can tell hot cold but not salt or sugar when will this come back?
Avatar n tn Try to get to a doctor before going back to school. It could just be an aftermath of your concussion, but I would also recommend taking an advil when you get headaches until you can get checked out by your doc.
Avatar m tn Was your ADD a result of the concussions effecting your executive function or did you have ADD prior? I ask because in the case of my son, he had no attention difficulties and although he had a temper, he had no sudden mood swings or irrational behavior until after the concussions which totally altered his demeanor. He is still recovering over a year later, but made progress. I may be reaching for excuses?
Avatar m tn I went to a basketball game in Scotland about 4 days ago and I got hit in the back of the head really hard. I felt a bit dizzy and sick afterwards. Now my head is starting to hurt and my vision is a bit blurry. Could I be concussed?
Avatar n tn Hi, I fell from an 18-wheeler onto pavement, hitting my left shoulder and then, my back and my neck and head 'snapped'....I had 11 stitches to close the wound in the back of my head. That was 3 years ago, and I still have dizzy spells, (if I turn suddenly) and occasional vomitting. Trouble sleeping if i end up on the back of my head.... A neurologist noted, the 'cT-scan is normal'....

Avatar f tn My roommate said my eyes went wavy, not rolled to back of my head, and then i fell sideways and hit my head on our dishwasher. Dishwasher has a dent. So, since this incendient weird things have accrued. I believe i have tinnitus now, constant ringing in my ears, sometimes really really loud, sometimes can’t hear, and certain noises trigger it. My head after this was really strange. I had a big knot, and constant headache.
