What is a concussion test?
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.

View allI've been dealing with a constant headache and I'm really worried. Could this be a migraine or might there be something else going on? I'm not sure what to think and would appreciate any advice.
The rumbling, growling, and gurgling noises in your stomach, along with changes in stool color and sudden urgency, may indicate: _Possible Causes_ 1. _Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)_: A common condition characterized by abdominal pain, changes in bowel movements, and stool appearance. 2. _Gastrointestinal Motility Disorder_: A condition where the muscles in the digestive tract don't function properly, leading to abnormal bowel movements and stool changes. 3. _Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)_: An overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine, which can cause abdominal noises, changes in stool, and digestive issues. _Next Steps_ 1. _Consult a Gastroenterologist_: Schedule an appointment with a specialist to discuss your symptoms and undergo a thorough evaluation. 2. _Keep a Food Diary_: Track your food intake, symptoms, and stool changes to help identify potential triggers. 3. _Stool Tests_: Your doctor may recommend stool tests to check for bacterial overgrowth, inflammation, or other abnormalities. _Dietary Changes_ 1. _Increase Fiber Intake_: Eat more fiber-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to help regulate bowel movements. 2. _Avoid Trigger Foods_: Identify and avoid foods that exacerbate your symptoms. 3. _Stay Hydrated_: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help prevent constipation and maintain digestive health.

I'm really confused and a bit worried about something I've been experiencing for the past year. I've been having this floating sensation and imbalance when I walk. I got an MRI done for both my brain and cervical spine, but they came back normal. What's weird is that sometimes it goes away for about 15 days and then just comes back. It's driving me insane! I dont have headaches, blurred vision, hearing issues, high blood pressure, or diabetes. It all started with this spinning feeling when I got up from bed, but now it mostly feels like imbalance. I consulted an ENT doctor who said it's not BPPV. I've also been to 3 or 4 neurophysicians and tried some medications but they didnt help. One of them suggested it might be anxiety, but I'm really lost here and dont know what to do next. Could you please suggest any other possibilities or any other steps I should take? I'm honestly at a loss and could use some direction.
That could be BPPV or Anxiety,follow your doctors advice maintain proper posture,and stay physicially active and take adequate rest
