It takes 60 to 80 G to cause a concussion. You cannot impact the boot cover at a 60G level. It moves when you hit it.
It sounds like you are in the UK. This forum has decades of posts of people in the UK who struggled to get good concussion diagnosis and care. Headway is an organization that is focused on helping head injury people find help in the NHS system.

Yeah I've booked in to get my neck done in 1 weeks time.
Yeah I think part of the anxiety is researching way too much.
What about the boot lid coming down? Not me hitting it the lid was up and the wind caused it to basically shut on the back of my head. That was what screwed me up was that big metal boot coming down on the back of my head.
I'm booking in to see a neuropsych or someone similar as well to discuss my anxiety because it is definintely not helping.
The final straw came tonight because I realised I wasn't letting my partner touch me as much as I was so sensitive, so she tried to hug me in bed and her arm bumped the back of my head and then she pulled me in (which upset my neck too).
That set me off and I started feeling dizzy and nauseous and I think because I had s similar bump like that in BJJ which set me off and the doctors said "mild concussion," I started to believe that I now have another concussion as it was the same bump as last time.
That is not possible right that kind of bump to the back of the head even tho I am still recovering from an existing concussion?
I am definintely going to see someone about the anxiety tho.
