Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I am Dr Sudhir Kumar, Neurologist, and would try my best to help you.

I have noted your details. Most probably you are suffering from mild concussion, which may last for a few days. This would go away on own with some rest. If dizziness is troublesome, you may take betahistine tablets.

There is no need to worry.

I sincerely hope my reply has helped you.

I would be pleased to answer, if you have any follow up queries or if you require any further information.
