Avatar f tn does a hit in the head followed by nausea, vertigo headache and diarrhea after 24 hours need to be examined and how serious it can be?

I've been having short term memory loss ever since. but its not so bad. but this pass few days.,,, i've been having this trobbing continues pain on my head and neck on the right side. Is it something that i must worry??
Avatar f tn I am a concussion survivor. Could you get a concussion if your head stops suddenly from a fast movement? Yesterday I was in a hurry and running and pushed the door in front of me. It stopped abruptly which caused my body to stop too. Could this cause a concussion? I'm scared because I am recovering from a concussion already. Does it make me more prone to brain injury? Please, help me!
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 m tn 3 days ago i was in a soccer game and i had got kicked in the head by my teamates foot. the next day at practice we were just kicking the ball around and i started to get disoreinted. i am seeing purple dots on the cieling and my eyes are dialated.2 days after i got kicked i started no being able to concentrate on anything. do you haveany ideas what it could be?
Avatar f tn 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. I am scared that I might catch something that might make me cough or sneeze or even worse which would really cause my head to become over whelmed with pain. I am on beta blockers and find my blood pressure can still rise up in the 150 range.
Avatar n tn Circling can indicate a stroke, and since there was a head injury, it could mean there is bleeding somewhere in the brain or a bloodclot as a result of the injury that caused the concussion. Chances are, in a very young dog like this, as long as the problem is caught and managed there will be no serious permanent damage, but the circling at this stage of the game is definitely cause for concern. Please let us know what the vet says.
Avatar n tn my daughter got hit in the head about an hour ago and the knot did not come out it went in ward should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn I am not sure anyone will be able to answer accurately since a concussion is a jarring to the brain and what happens physically in/on the brain no one knows.
1980327 tn?1326248976 I had a head injury Dec 23 and now I get dizzy every time I turn at night while laying down, is this a normal sign of concussion.
Avatar n tn with time he should get better but if he has a very tiny bleed that starts leaking it could get danergous. My son had a friend in highschool that hit his head on the playground and the bleed didn't show for almost a month.not to scare you but dr. work for US> not vice versa.... good luck..
Avatar n tn I had an x-ray yesterday which showed no fracture, however I now feel worse than I did yesterday with disorientation (I try to walk in one direction and go in the other), dizzyness, fatigue, my limbs feel like led weights, my fingers are tingling. I have an increasingly worse headache and am feeling very nauseous.Things are starting to get very difficult to make sense of! And its becoming quite difficult to focus on things...everything has a blurry edge to it. My pupils are like pin pricks.
Avatar f tn t crack anything or have internal bleeding, just a nasty concussion in the frontal lobe region. The local Er doc was much more helpful and let me know what signs and symptoms to look out for and what to expect. She was pretty surprised the other doc didn't Ct me immediately, but all is well now. Thanks again!
Avatar m tn 3 days ago i was punched in the back of the head multiple times about 10 if i remember correctly i have a few bumps and it feels sore and i got a little nauseous i didnt go see a doctor .
1033165 tn?1309435416 My daughter who was in a bad car accident back in April was seen by a Neurologist yesterday for severe daily headaches and dizziness. They mri and head ct showed an angioma. The Neuro dr said that is not what her problem is coming from it is from a severe concussion, and she is suffering from post concussion problems and could take 3- 6 mo easily to recover from.Why does this take so long to recover from? Why was this never picked up before from the er doctors.
Avatar f tn I had my head slammed 3 nights ago the back of my head on a brick wall.(back middle to bottom) I felt woosy and almost blacked out.. when I almost fell, someone smacked my left cheek hard and woke me up where it was not black anymore but I felt woosy and my head hurt badly. on and off my head has been hurting sometimes really badly and I get woosy where I almost fall asleep. How worried should I be and what could be wrong?!
Avatar n tn I have a pretty good knot on my head still and know I had a concussion (dizziness, fatigue, nausea/vomiting and headache). Well.. today my head still hurts, but I am noticing pain in my ear as well still. That began last night. Since I do not have insurance, I am wondering if I should be concerned and seek treatment. Please advise!
Avatar f tn Yesterday I was very angry and punch the right side of my head (near temple). The area is still pain. I am wonder should I go to a doctor? How long should I monitor the situation? Thanks.
Avatar f tn t masturbate, but I have had, sex during concussion recovery and my symptoms always increase afterward, even if the sex is not strenuous. It is the movement of the head that cause such, so due to my head injury history and experience, any movements that affect movement of the head can have a negative affect on concussion symptoms and recovery.
Avatar m tn Sorry, but by now you realize it was not a good idea to put those puppies on the bed. The pup can have a serious injury to it's head, neck or spine. I suggest you get it to the Vet fir an exam. There is no way to reassure you.
Avatar m tn s for poor people and folks like you who have nowhere to turn, and that way you can get in to see the doctor on your own. Look in the phone book in the white pages under your county's name, like Orange County or Red River County, and look for "Health Department" under that county government heading. It will have the street address, and a phone number in case you don't know quite where it is.
Avatar f tn Hi, One week ago I was opened handed smacked on the sides and back of my head about 4 in total, I didn't pass out, When I lie down I feel pressure, I also suffer from anxiety/health anxiety and already feel weird head/body sensations, I know I need time to heal but I am scared of a brain bleed or blood clot, I've been reading stories and have scared myself
Avatar m tn This could possibly be a factor. Have his ears checked. He could be suffering from fluid in his ears, which could cause many symptoms. Did anything happen during his trip? Did something set him off? Will he answer you honestly? I have ADD, have had several concussions over the years, and also suffer with Meniere's Disease ( inner ear thing )...I get the worst "jet lag" in the world when I even go over the mountains in a car. Any change in altitude sets me off...
Avatar f tn I hit my head on the ground hard, experiencing extreme pain in the back of my head, so much so I felt like I was going to cry-which I never do. It took me a few minutes to get up, and when I did, pain exploded in the back of my head. Since then, I've been tired, angry, irritable, expirienced mood swing and headaches. should I go to the doctor to check for a concussion?
