Default Concussion from iPad?

Hello all,

I have been doing fine for the last year - I have been around 90% my pre-accident health which I have settled with.

Friday night I was sleeping on my coutch when my son came sitting beside me and accidentily hit me in the head just above my eye with the iPad edge. I dont now the speed or force (was sleeping) but it was hard enough to wake me up and it heart a lot.

Its the old Ipad 1 and weight around 700 gram. It heart for around 5 minutes but didnt leave a contusion or gose egg and the area wasnt really sore afterwards.

Sinde then I have been more foggy, tired and had small-scale headache. I have increased sound sensitivity etc.

Should I treat this as a new concussion? Any thoughts are very welcome.

Thanks for listening

Not a new concussion. Maybe a contusion to the many layers of skin and nerves on the surface of your skull. Ouch.

This likely caused you focus on or look for these other symptoms which makes them appear to increase.

You will be fine once the tenderness goes away.
