I was accidentally elbowed hard in the nose yesterday and don't believe it is broke as it never bleed and looks in place just swollen. but have had a headache since then and am sleepy. could i get a concussion from that type of injury/ impact?

Elbow head injury: Drowsiness, headaches, lethargy are possible symptoms of a concussion. If symptoms are persisting you should be evaluated. THE NOSE IS THE LESSER ISSUE THAN THE BRAIN
