Hello,

2 days ago i fell on my chin and I did not lose consciousness nor feel any loss of memory. But It literally felt like a clean uppercut to the chin. From the doctor's point of view I really shouldn't worry about this, but again he's no neurologist. I've had 2 mild to severe concussions in the past (2years and 10 years ago). I am really worried that i may have lost some of my brain capacities, motivation or attention span with this recent one.

I feel normal expect i'm a bit depressed about the fact that i may have worsen my condition. I normally take nootropics (cerebrolysin and piracetam )

what do you think ? should i worry about a minor hit like this ?

I would go with what the doc said. I think they are pretty conservative regarding concusions. If he/she was worried he would have put you on bed rest, etc.

thanks for your answer. I hope this is the case. I'll try to forget about it and go on without worrying... tuff to do when brain health is a priority :/
