Covered my back from head to toe in mud and had to drive home like that. Might have hit my head harder than I thought though as I have started having headache surges and fluorescent lights and loud noises are bothering me. Great.

Also, my back is sore but I don’t know if that’s because my bad back, because I was golfing, or because the shock to it from falling. I am the oldest 22 years old ever.

... go to a doctor and get that shit checked out as soon as you can. Don’t drive, get a ride.

I’m no doctor but sounds like you just entered the concusion club. Welcome. Hopefully you don’t suffer any long term effects. The medical profession seems to take them more seriously these days so I’m sure they’ll give you a battery of tests and then tell you to take it easy for a while. The headaches usually only last a day or two for a minor one. Try to not watch a lot of moving things like TV, or do too much reading, it’ll make the headaches worse. If you get really nauseous or have balance or speech issues get your ass to the emergency room. Shit is no longer minor.

Yeah, it’s not hurting too bad consistently but just flashes of ehh that hurts . I’m going to rest and reevaluate. From what I’ve heard of concussion my friends have had they are in much more pain.

My guess is you’ll be fine by the sounds of it. Generally if it’s bad you have some pretty bad symptoms to go along with it. I’ve had a few dings on different quadrants of the noggin, and the bad ones felt BAD. Like 6-8 out of 10 kinda bad.

Yeah, it’s not that bad yet. If it gets any worse I will definitely get checked out. Right now noises and lights are just a nuisance, not a pain. Also, this all could be because I spent all day outside in the sun and I’m tired and the fall just has me worried.

This is America. We only go to the doctor when we’re literally dying, because we can’t afford that shit lol.
