I may just be a worried mom, but I need some advice about my 19 yr old son. He thinks he is fine and does not need to see a doctor. He won't go see one, so I need to know if my worry is groundless, or if I have a genuine concern here.
He got into a boxing match last night. They wore gloves, and it didn't last long. But he said he was knocked out for a few seconds, and his vision was blurry last night. He had a black eye and a bloody nose. He found out later the guy was semi-pro.
Please correct me if I am mistaken, but I thought loss of consciousness indicated a concussion, and he should be careful for a few weeks, especially no blows to the head.
He says he has another fight on Sunday...and that he's already beaten the guy. So apparently this has been going on, but I don't know how long. They do it for fun.
I have to admit, I'm worried sick.
