Diagnosed with severe concussion (5 weeks ago). woke up this am with tons of blood on my pillow, related?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Concussion & blood: Probably not related but you should seek an immediate evaluation to include a head ct scan and mri. If that checks out ok, the source of the bleeding should be identified. A comprehensive evaluation is warranted.

Can you get a concussion from a pillow thrown and landed on top of your head? It did not hurt. No bump, no headaches, no lite headedness.
