You provided no description of the type of impact or resulting symptoms to help formulate a reasoned response. You are welcome to start over and provide detail about the event & what if any symptoms resulted. If it was brief and produced no alteration in your function, it is likely no change in your normal activities is necessary.

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?
