A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a bump, blow or jolt to the head or body that shakes the brain. Symptoms include headache, dizziness, nausea, fogginess, trouble concentrating, sensitivity to light or noise, and sleep changes, and they may appear hours later. Falls, sports and car crashes are common causes in adults.
Also call 911 for chest pain, trouble breathing, stroke signs, a sudden severe headache, fainting, a seizure, severe bleeding, new confusion, throat swelling, an overdose or thoughts of harming someone else — and call or text 988 for thoughts of harming yourself. There's no charge for the online safety check. If it tells you to call 911 or go to an emergency room, do that instead of booking.
Two minutes. Emergencies are sent to 911 right away.

Your clinician plans follow-up at the visit.
There's no online fee. Your visit is billed as a normal clinic visit — to your insurance with your usual copay or deductible, or as a self-pay clinic visit. Any tests done that day are billed separately — to your insurance, or at the self-pay price shown to you before the test.
Concussion needs a hands-on exam — and sometimes a test — to be evaluated safely. Rather than charge for an online visit that would end in "please come in", we screen for emergencies and book you straight into a same-day visit at one of our Dallas–Fort Worth clinics. Outside Dallas–Fort Worth, please see an urgent care center or your own clinician.
A clinician needs to check your balance, coordination, eyes, reflexes and thinking to look for signs of a more serious brain injury and to decide whether you need a scan. That exam can't be done reliably through photos or a form. Seeing you in person also lets your clinician tailor a safe plan for returning to work, driving and sports.
Most adults feel better within a few days to a few weeks. Relative rest for the first day or two, then gradually adding light activity, usually helps more than staying in a dark room. Avoid anything that could cause another head injury until a clinician clears you. If symptoms last longer than a few weeks, your clinician may refer you for more care.
This condition needs a hands-on exam to meet the standard of care, so it is booked in person. The standard of care online is the same as in person, and no agency may impose a higher one (Tex. Occ. Code §111.007; 22 TAC §175.2).
