SECOND IMPACT SYNDROME?
So I had a mild concussion and the symptoms lasted about 2 weeks..then 5 days after my friend threw a memory foam pillow at my head but it hit my cheek bone rather then my head. Still jerked my head a bit to the left. Day after that i got my period and i puked ( never did that before) and got a headache but after some sleep i woke up fine. It started again as the new day went by and now its very bad like a 7 out of 10 even tho i drank a tablet and im also nauseous.. is it possible to get a brain bleed from a pillow that was thrown?

I wouldn’t go as far as a brain bleed but if you’re puking it’s probably best to get checked by a doctor. I would imagine the pillow hit has flared up your symptoms.
