    Get over it. Rugby players don't feel pain. :p

    Seriously, I'd get it checked out. I broke my wrist playing rugby at school. The school nurse told me that there was nothing to worry about. She was very wrong.

    :\

    That's not too good.

    If there is anything serious, paracetamol won't really help.

    Is there no one else that can take you?

    next door neighbours? :confused:

    I got a concussion before and the doc told me to sleep it off. Was ok the next day. But if you have hemoarging in the brain or something then you can just feel a bit funny for a while then the blood in the brain can kill you :(

    Id tell your mum to take you to hospital now...

    Lies!

    No, but really, if you were that bad you should see the school nurse, or something. The school wouldn't just leave you with a possible concussion.

    Oh and dont let your mum read Mist's post, because it gives it away. Though you are serious, so there is nothing to worry about

    What you are describing is probably a mild concussion. The worrisome symptoms are the nausea, because these symptoms among others can be associated with what is called increased intracranial pressure that could be due to blood inside the brain or around it but inside the skull.

    Edit: I would strongly advise that you consult with a local neurologist or go to an A&E physicianASAP. Do NOT wait.

    Aint! I was told the same, concussion can lead to compression if left to get worse, i would be careful and get it checked.

    If it is serious they may keep you in for observation, but sleep is best after its been checked out, the MYTH dont sleep is just to protect proffessionals (first aiders) so that you can observe the consiousness.

    After it has been checked you do sleep it off

    BUT GET IT CHECKED, I HAVE SEEN THESE THINGS GO WRONG!!!!:(
