Is Diarrhea A Symptom Of Concussion?
I have had a helmet to helmet impact in football today. Most of the symptoms I have had were that Of a concussion so I was sent off for at least a week. A few hours after receiving the blow I had severe diarrhea. Could this be a symptom of my concussion? If so should I go to the hospital or see a specialist?

Hello,
I don't find diarrhea is much related to the contusion. I think you need to visit a specialist to check about fracture if it is serious or not. Taking count that you didn't vomit and didn't feel dizzy it is a good sign.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
