A member asked:
I fell yesterday on concrete. hit head hard. don't remember accident. major headache still and food taste funny. could this be some type of concussion?

You are correct: Yes, you seemed to have experienced a cerebral concussion when you fell. Might contact your doctor, as your headache and alteration of taste, most likely due to changes in sense of smell, could be treated and potentially reversed.

How hard do you have to hit your head to get a concussion? I got a terrible headache doing a forward roll on a gymnastics spring floor 3 days ago. I still dont feel right but the headache was only a day. Could this be a concussion or just a anxiety?
