    Do I have a Concussion?
    I'am not sure if this is the best category to ask this... but the other day during a basketball game I slammed my head against the floor and it's been pounding ever since... I feel extreme pressure and it aches...
    Is it possible that I might have a concussion?
    What are the signs so I can be sure and tell my mom to have a doc. Check it out.
    Thank you

    Usually a concussion causes nausea. However, concussion or not you need to see a doctor. It is not good to have a headache that lasts for days.

    Were you unconscious at any time after you hit your head? I'd go get it checked out anyway, there could be bleeding.
