hi My son fell tonight in hockey practice and hit his head kinda hard. He was wearing a helmet and protective gear. He did NOT lose conciousness, but has a headache. Should I take him to the doctor... I feel like he will probably be ok, but worse case scenerio would be concussion. What should I do
Hello dear!in my opinion yes you should consult a doctor within 24 hrs. Sometimes its just superficial injury and won't hurt that much, but you never know about concussion. I hope it won't be but still I would like you to see a doctor to have a detailed physical examination of the child. Wishing your child good health :-)
