I got a nasty bang on my head on the hard top of a bunk bed. I did not faint at all anytime after it and I remember everything that happened before and after the incident. I hit myself on the top of my head. Ever since then I have been getting intermittent bouts of dizziness and headaches. I think it may be post concussion syndrome and not internal bleeding because had it been a brain bleeding affair I would probably be incapacitated by now( it has been 10 days since this incident).
I also notice that this tends to occur more in the evenings and nights. I am still in my right mind after the ten days. If it had been internal bleeding I am sure I would be getting convulsions and the likes like 2 days after the injury. Also when I wake up in the morning I feel fine. This only occurs at nights and evenings. is this post concussion syndrome or not. Also it does not happen every night. It is on and off. I read post concussion syndrome can last for months. I did not go to any doctor. Are you sure I am alright and have post concussion syndrome or am I about to die? |

Would I knoiw by now. |

If you are going to worry so much about this head bump, then go see a doctor. He can do a neurological evaluation to determine if you have any neurological symptoms.
You could also see a chiropractor as you may have injured your neck. *edit*
