• Should I see a doctor after a possible concussion?

I hit my head on the corner of a counter pretty hard. I had trouble with balance, and now my vision is blurry. Should I see a doctor?

It is always reasonable to consult with the neurosurgeon or a neurologist if you suspect that you suffered from a concussion.

Yes, balance and vision problems are best evaluated by the doctor.

It’s also safer to see your doctor as even a minor hit to the head can cause post concussion headaches and some type of bleeding may have occurred.
