Probably yes: Serious problems after a concussion occur. Thus, a health provider should likely be involved especially if symptoms last or worry you. Nausea, vomiting, dizziness, headache, poor sleep or irritability? Weakness or numbness? Tired? Slowed thinking, difficulty remembering, acting “in a fog”? School performance worse? If you are asking the question, you already know the wise answer--get seen!

Get checked: The effects of concussions can vary and be unpredictable. It depends on the severity of the injury. The symptoms can include headache, dizziness, vision change (blurred vision/ double vision), nausea/vomiting. If your symptoms or headache are severe, or if you have a loss of consciousness, you should get evaluated immediately.
