Minor headache that cleared. do i have a concussion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Specifics: Glad that your headache has "cleared". A closed head injury is common, and not necessarily associated with a concussion, which, by definition, is trauma to head resulting in loss of consciousness, loss of memory, or a combination of both. Otherwise, head injury is not a concussion.
