Yesterday my 24 year old hit her head while getting out of a chair on a mounted vcr. It was a hard hit. She was not knocked unconcious but then had shortness of breath and dizziness afterwards. She saw a doctor but tonight the pain continues and the shortness of breath has returned. What could this be?
Tithe pain is due to local injury. Breathlessness needs to be evaluated.  Since there was no major injury the chance of breathlessness due to head injury is very less. So get examined by your doctor once and get complete hologram once to rule out anemia or any other problem. For now, she can take NSAID like Ibuprofen for pain and apply cold compression over injury area. Regards
