What Do Shaking , Headaches And Numbness In Limbs Post Head Injury Indicate?
My 19 year old was hit in the head with an elbow (between her eyes). A huge knot formed. She felt fine at first then started shaking, she couldn t move her fingers or toes. She couldn t move her lips. One eye was half open. After 15 min she starting feeling better and only had a mild headache.

Hello,
Very likely she is experiencing a panic attack. On the other hand, if she still has any shaking, headaches or numbness after the episode is over it may be safer to have her checked with the doctor. She will need a visit with the doctor even if she is completely fine now but any of these symptoms come back.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
