I got into a fist fight with my brother four days ago and during the fight I took a heavy blow to the back of my head. There was a flash of light and obviously it hurt a lot. I also had a spell of nausia afterwards.
I was not concerned at the time but now four days later I still have the same nagging headache. I have also found myself more tired than usual and having trouble concentrating. I have lost balance occassionally and had to physically catch myself but have yet to actually fall down.
I have had two concussions in the past so I am worried this might be a third. Does it sounds like I have a concussion?

Yes. It's a concussion. Get to your doctor. the only symptom of concussio you're not demonstrating is blurred vision and that maybe coming too. get seen asap, no need to postpone.

See your doctor tomorrow! Effects from concussions should not last this long. Not sure what else it could be but most people that I've come across that got hit in the head do not mention a white light. You need to see your doctor tomorrow.

A third concussion can be deadly. Don't fool around dude. Go to a doctor right away.Where the heck are the parents lately.Don't you think you should console them first.

Sounds like you have a concussion. Don't drink alcohol and you should see your Dr. to make sure there is no swelling in the brain. That can be serious.

Yes. You should probably see a doctor. Also, having that many concussions isn't really good...
