I hit my head at around 5pm and i still have a headache with mild confusion & its currently 8:30pm. could it be concussion & when should i see a doc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes. See a doctor.: Yes, especially if you lost consciousness. You should not have confusion 3 hours after bumping your head, unless there is potentially more going on. You may have a concussion, and possibly more. Consider doctor/ER. Hope this helps!

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?
