Is It Concussion or Mild Traumatic Brain Injury?

My head hurts way too much to focus on this video rn.

She sounds like she knows what she is talking about. I know from experience that it is extremely difficult to find a medical professional that knows anything about concussion/Mild TBI after affects.... the general medical professionals/ neurologists, etc. proved almost worthless. If they can’t see it on an image, they theorize. They often dismiss post traumatic stress and other issues simply because they don’t know.... worse yet they try to address issues with medication not knowing what they are doing... I lost a lot of faith in medical professionals. In fact, most of them don’t know much at all, at least clinically... The good ones are difficult to find !

Please keep researching this. Thank you.

Last August, I was playing on the PC minding my own business, till I entered a Mild TBI and I couldn't even stand up, it kept happening to me for months but it stopped once I consulted a doctor and I was taking medicine, but I guess it is due to sitting in front of a computer for a long periods of time? As the doctor said I had fatigue in my eye due to it facing the screen alot of time

And now I'm gonna re visit the doctor in July, wish me luck guys.

I had that with seizures, it's a month since it happened and I've started to notice that my reading has improved, comprehension of complex things (not so much), and awareness of time and space is a little bit off (not severe as before). And depressive symptoms decreased since starting moderate intensity exercise (walking-jogging-running for about 40-60 minutes a day [did that for 3 days and has been noticing a relief.


*MRI was normal, but EEG according to the neurologist showed some abnormalities; which is why she prescribed an anti epileptic; which I haven't taken.

It always amuses me that the medical profession calls a concussion a "mild" TBI, when in reality there is nothing mild about it all! My daughter and I have both suffered from serious concussions in the last three years, and we are still not fully recovered. We have been through a lot of stress and trauma and needed a lot of help from a range of medical professionals. I think it needs to be re-named!

I fell on the ground with the left side of my body and i’m not sure if it hits my head. I stood up dizzy and rest coz i hardly breathe. Then I don’t remember what’s going on for about less than a minute. I forgot where i came and where to go for just a minute. But it quickly back then. My head is fine i don’t feel any pain or swelling. And i dont’t vomit the next 24hours. But i got left shoulder injury and neck pain. Until now it’s been week and i still don’t remember if i hit my head or not i’m just worried coz i got quick memory loss after the accindent. Hope it’s not serious

Hey, former buckeye here. How severe would you classify a three day coma followed by about a week's worth of constant vomiting and I don't remember anything from 12 hours prior to my attack until roughly five days later and the next week is still pretty hazy? Legitimate question, this happened to me on July 31st, 2015 and since I don't have continuing care I'm not sure what I should be doing at this stage of recovery. I still have good function, obviously. I can still talk normally and take part in intellectual discussion but I still get light headed if I stand up too quickly or bow my head and I get headaches at night. No drinking since it happened so that's no an issue. Thanks for your help, it's a shot in the dark but I'd hope I can always reach out to my

My question is about recoil from guns cause concession, TBI, or any sort of brain damage.

[frosty]

So I got rocked during a spar and I didn't fall and hit my head and I didn't fully lose consciousness but I did have temporary memory loss and I didn't know where I was for at least 30 minutes and I'm currently just resting and a little nervous hoping it wasn't severe, don't want to go to the hospital if it's not serious

I hate my concussion, I lost 18 months of my life.

Hello I have had a blow to my head on right side of my head 10 years ago, I was unconscious for 10 minutes and I had headache the whole day and for 30 days after getting up in the morning, I have not consulted doctor and not taken any treatment
Now from last 3 years I am having symptoms of TBI
Mental confusion, blurry vision in one eye, sensitivity to light and sound, I feel as if my right ear drum is broken, balance problem while driving please let me know whether the symptoms are serious and I need to get an MRI scan done.

[ShaliniBasu]

Vomiting is normal and not serious after how many days of head injury ?

[slicksly]

Could someone please help me I just need to know if I have a concussion. Someone hit me when I was very drunk and I got knocked out for 1-2 minutes. I don’t remember the fight, and once I became conscious again I noticed that my jaw is hurting a lot, making it so I can barely chew, and I have a pretty bad headache. That’s all the symptoms I think I have.

I had a 2x12 fall 5ft off of a pill onto the base of my skull the other and I’m trying to recover so I can work again . I can barely remember anything before the incident it’s very hazy . Making a fist is a challenge it’s feels like there’s weights on my arms and leaves me in fatigue walking more than an hour I’m tired and where I got hit starts to hurt. My memory is ok so to say but it’s hazy . But no broken skull or bleeding the brain just a wicked concussion currently recovering from it ! May go see a Neurologist because even simple motor skills is a little challenging and I get very tired moving my fingers

Decades ago, my brother and I were having a boxing contest. He delivered a massive blow to my head. It seems I stood briefly and then collapsed. I don't know how long I was unconscious. My friends had been with us all day. When I regained consciousness, I asked them, "Hey, when did you guys get here?" I had seen my parents leave earlier. Just then, they came through the gate I said to them, "I didn't know you guys were gone." For a week afterward, I was in a dazed state. I didn't get to the doctor. I've often wondered about any long-term effects. I have periods of "absence" and people tell me to "stay with us". At her wedding, my daughter said, "Now Dad, don't space out." I've been scolded by bosses for staring into space. Please comment if can. Thanks much.
