A concussion is a brain injury. You should see a neurologist, and soon.

Is MX worth losing your life for or becoming paralyzed for? Please- see a doctor. You can't MX in a wheelchair.

You could have some swelling going on up there. Suck it up, see a doctor or at least an emergency room doc. You'll have to pay later but they can't refuse you for no insurance.
Go to the doc, go to the doc.

You need a CAT scan no question if you are still dizzy. You could have some swelling on the brain. The hospital has to see you.

If you have yet to see a dr how do you know you have one? Are going by symptoms or past experience or are you just confused? jk

I've had 3 of them (1 severe, 2 mild)....  if your 5th one was as bad as my first one then you might have pain & headaches for several weeks...  but you should see a doctor.
