Can i get concussion symptoms 52 hours after a fall and blow to head?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Concussive injury: Your head probably was "knocked-around" during the fall hitting your head..And some headache afterward is quite common. If you experience significant dizziness, vision change, and nausea/vomitting, consult doc asap. Otherwise, take it easy for couple of days. Motrin/tylenol may help ease the pain a bit. Consult doc. Good luck.
