will hitting the head twice lead to concussion
hi I have carefully and thoroughly reviewed all the details related to your case and feel sorry for the health issues you have there is no major harm to the brain when hitting like this even twice in quick succession your concerns are notable but that worrisome situation is when someone gets an impact harder enough to cause some signs of real concussion like nausea vomiting getting unconscious severe headache vertigo etc you did not have that large impact in both cases and there is no need to go for immediate medical care you need to handle it at home take ibuprofen for pain and apply local painkiller and anesthetic ointment on the scalp if needed these are available over the counter at any pharmacy apply heat to the site of impact and take care of yourself remain vigilant on your moves and be safe
hello doctor I hit my head twice this week and wondering if I should see a doctor I am a 29 year old female the first hit was four days ago on the top right of my head when standing up underneath something metal it was a pretty hard hit it hurt on and off for a day just the spot itself on my scalp I did not have a headache or nausea or any other symptoms today I leaned forward quickly and bashed the front top of my head onto a wooden dresser it hurt pretty badly and I felt my teeth chatter I do not have a headache now other than the spot itself hurting I am not nauseous nor do I have any other symptoms of concussion I have read that if you hit your head twice two concussions within days you should go to a doctor but I am not even sure these are concussions I am not sure when a simple bump actually is a concussion or really how to tell do you have any advice
