What is a concussion test?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Concussion testing is the test to evaluate brain function before and after a head trauma, which is performed by a health-care professional. They measure physical skills such as balance, and mental skills such as memory, concentration, how quickly you can think and solve problems, and your ability to pay attention. Sometimes, a baseline test is performed in persons who are at risk of getting a concussion such as athletes.

Can you review my MRI results and let me know if my disc issue can heal without surgery or if physiotherapy would work better for it

I've been feeling really off lately. My head gets super heavy whenever I start talking, though it's weird because it doesn't actually hurt. Sometimes my hands start shaking, and I've been feeling pretty dizzy too. During conversations, my mind just goes completely blank for a bit, which is really worrying. There's also a bit of neck pain happening. I've been on some tablets for about 20 days now, but I'm not seeing any improvements. I've had an MRI, EEG, and my thyroid levels checked, but everything came back normal. What could be going on here? Would love to hear your thoughts.

Your symptoms of heavy head, hand tremors, giddiness, mind blankness, and neck pain, despite normal MRI, EEG, and thyroid reports, may indicate anxiety, stress, or a neurological condition such as essential tremor, dystonia, or a conversion disorder; consider consulting a neurologist

I'm genuinely worried about my mom. Shes been feeling this creepy crawling sensation under her skin, like ants biting her, and it's been happening several times throughout the day. It's mostly in the upper part of her body but seems to be spreading. This has been going on for over a month, and she's tried allergy meds like Atarax and Candiforce, but nothing's helping. And shes also diabetic, which adds to my concerns. Im not sure which specialist we should consult. Any guidance would be really appreciated.
