Concussion: One or two blows without unconsciousness is not to worry about. Dozens of apparently minor blows could cause cerebral injury. Rest easy and find out why you keep hitting you head.

CONCUSSION: From what you describe regarding the mechanism of injury, and your current absence of symptoms, it does not appear that your sustained a concussion-force injury. If however you develop symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, light/noise sensitivity, nausea/vomiting, then you should follow up with your doctor. Don't forget to duck your head next time
