What Causes Nausea, Speech Problem And Swollen Eye After A Head Injury?

I got a severe concussion 5 days ago. CT scan was fine. I vomited for a couple days. Still nauseous. Balance is bad. Vision is strange- white lights, tilted, everything is farther away. Speech problems. I m easily agitated & other than that my emotional feelings are flat. Other things but I think you get the point. I have an eeg & MRI scheduled for next week. This afternoon my right eye started to hurt. Tonight, it s swollen and looks like a black eye. It hurts worse. I hit the very back top of my head FYI. Do I have to go back to ER again?

As per your history indicates you should do two things now:-
1)Do a Detailed point wise neurological clinical examination by a neuro surgeon
2)Do a MRI scan now ,not in next week
