Yes, both: Symptoms. Of a concussion include headache altered mental status (loss of consciousness), disorientation, confusion and difficulty with attention and memory. Cognitive changes and consciousness are the hallmarks of concussion. Symptoms of whiplash are generally headache and neck/shoulder pain. A person may have both from the same injury.
