Yes: The most important thing you can do is rest. This includes rest from cognitive tasks as well as physical ones. If you still have symptoms after 2weeks, see a neurologist for more suggestions and possibly interventions.

Fainted from seeing blood. Was out at least 30 seconds. Hit head on hard surface. No memory loss or major pain. But slight headache and nausea. Should I get checked for Concussion? ER didnt seem too concerned.
