🚨 Concussion Red Flags: When You MUST Go to Hospital 🚑

Not every concussion needs a trip to the emergency room — but some symptoms are serious warning signs you can’t ignore.

If you notice any of the following after a head knock, it’s time to seek urgent medical attention:

⚠️ Repeated vomiting
⚠️ Loss of consciousness
⚠️ Severe or worsening headache
⚠️ Seizures or convulsions
⚠️ Weakness, numbness or tingling
⚠️ Slurred speech or confusion
⚠️ Unusual behaviour or agitation
⚠️ Double or loss of vision
⚠️ Neck pain or tenderness

These are potential signs of a more serious brain injury — and timing matters.

At Melbourne Headache + Concussion Group, we’re here to guide you through safe concussion care. But if red flags appear, hospital is the safest place to be.

Helmets are an essential piece of equipment in sports such as football, lacrosse, and cycling.

Designed to protect athletes from serious head injuries, they are highly effective in preventing skull fractures and severe trauma, but their ability to prevent concussions remains a topic of debate.

Our 6th and final instalment for Headache & Migraine Awareness Week discusses vestibular migraines.

A vestibular migraine (VM) is a type of migraine that involves dizziness as one of the more prominent symptoms. 😵‍💫🥴

While many VM sufferers experience headache as an associated symptom, it is possible for sufferers to experience dizziness without head pain during their attack. 🤕🤒

VM attacks can last from minutes to days, or have a cyclical pattern of weeks to months. 📆 ⏰

For more information on VM and to find out how we can assist you in managing your migraine, click the link in our bio.

We have plenty of information on our website and have additional skills to treat migraines at the Melbourne Headache & Concussion Group.

We operate within Williamstown Health & Lifestyle so call now (03) 9397 8877, if you have an enquiry or want to book an appointment.

It's our 5th instalment for Headache & Migraine Awareness Week and we are discussing chronic migraines.

Chronic migraine is defined as having a migraine attack on 15 or more days per month, each month, for three or more months. 🗓️

Symptoms include headache, with or without aura. 🤕😵‍💫

Chronic migraine can be quite debilitating as there may be repetitive interruptions of work life, social commitments, and relationships.

Does this sound like you?

At Melbourne Headache and Concussion Group, we understand the debilitating effects of migraine and aim to reduce the frequency, intensity and duration of your migraine attacks, improving your quality of life. We address both physiological and lifestyle factors that may be contributing.

For more information head to our website or book online.

Migraine is a very complex genetic neurological disorder that comes in all shapes and forms.

There are many subtypes of migraine that have their own key symptoms.

Additionally, everyone's migraine experience is unique.

We have plenty of information on our website and have additional skills to treat migraines at the Melbourne Headache & Concussion Group.
