iPhone hit head

Hey y’all! I was putting something away and my iPhone fell off a table and hit my head. It fell about a foot before it hit me. It’s an xr with a thin case for reference. It hurt a lot and I may have a bump. I am now having symptoms (headache and a little dazed) but I’m not sure if that’s anxiety. Do y’all think this could cause a concussion?

Thank you! It was on a book that my husband lifted so it had a little more force than just toppling over. That’s why I was a little worried!

If a 6.4 ounce iPhone XR hit your head hard enough to cause your brain to accelerate at 60 to 80 Gs, that iPhone would shatter into pieces and your scalp would have a vicious gash.

60 to 80 Gs is like dropping a 16 pound bowling ball from your hand as you stand onto your toes.

btw, It takes a minimum of 60 to 80 Gs to cause a mild concussion.
