Concussion: Some people may have a post-concussive/traumatic headache. If the headache is accompanied by other symptoms (difficulty concentrating, irritability) then you might have post-concussion syndrome. Improvement in symptoms is based on many factors including severity and location of the concussion. See a neurologist for evaluation. http://www.webmd.com/brain/post-concussion-syndrome

Concussion : Headaches may persist for several weeks after a concussion. The highest risk for repeat concussion occurs within a two week window after the initial injury. It is important to be evaluated by a sports medicine physician or neurosurgeon who specializes in concussions to get treatment for the headaches and to receive clearance to resume exercises and contact sports.
