You should be ok, considering you only blacked out for a second or two, dont quit the sport if its your passion! But Im a manager for our schools basketball team, and the guys get banged up all the time, trust me, you'll be okay! Just rest for a day if thats what you feel you need, but if a headache keeps coming, then you should go to the doctor.

I would go to the doctor if I were you because you could be at risk for a blood clot. I have banged my shin and it has never done what yours has.  It has been too long since you hit it for this type of reaction.  Please take yourself to a doctor just to be on the safe side.

If you were wearing a helmet, then you should be fine.  But if you still feel bad tomorrow, then I would go to a doctor.\n\nIf you weren't wearing a helmet, then I would go to the ER ASAP.

Can he make baskets from everywhere? If he can only shoot from straight on that's great because if you double team him into a corner he won't be able to make many if any from there. In other words keep moving him to where he is uncomfortable. Another thing to look at is his stealing. Is he sloppy? If so, you should be able to draw fouls. Fall if you have to. Just make sure the world knows when you have been hit. What you guys really need to do is work on your game. Stick to the basics. Stay away from the fancy. Your foul shooting is critical. Practice shoot these foul shots every chance you get. Next you have to work on getting the ball in. Practice many different ways to do it so your prepared for anything. Want to draw fouls? Work on your layups. You can get 2 points plus 2 more if you are fouled. Practice your passing. For this game stay away from the bounce pass because it can be easily stolen. More questions? Let me know. Good luck.

Oh no!, that really sucks! But, I think you know what to do already. Go see a doctor before it heals so he can put it back in place. If you are worried, got to the emergency room at your nearest hospital. Good Luck! And keep your head back from that lil rascal!

i had that too when i played lacrosse....i got hit on the thumb and it swelled up but i just put ice and did a few thumb excercises. My brother had the same also when he got hit with a stick when playing floor hockey. U can go see a different doctor like an sports doctor or u can see ur athletic trainer. U can continue to put some ice even though it doesn't hurt. ur tissues are still swelled up i think. well......i hope i helped u...ur hearing from a future atheltic trainer.

Don't focus on the game until you started stretching out for the game.  This will keep you calm.  Do something you enjoy outside of basketball...listen to music, read, etc...

The best way I know of is to alway's rember not to lookaway from the rimb or the hoopthat is. While you are shooting the ball focus on the hoop itself & not your rist because, when you are concentrating on your shot, your wrist will automatically lock in on your target. You already know how to shoot the ball,so your mind should really be fixed on the rim, not anything else should you be fixed on but that rim.Alway's rember thatyou should be  really enjoying this sport because it's one of the most fairest games ever invented. Everyone that play's Basketball realizes that everybody gets a chance at makeing a shot & that's what makes  it so great. So get back to that court & just enjoy what you are doing.

You need to see your doctor.  Dropping 20-30 pounds on your head can do serious damage that you need to have treated.

I would follow the coaches' orders and take it easy. If you are playing on it and as you said "competitively" then of course it's still swollen. You need to lay off it untill it heals. This can compound a minor injury into something worse.

Go to a good sports store for the best selection of basketball shoes.\n\nIf you are going to play, buy top of the line good quality even if they cost more money because they will give you the proper suupport for your ankles and feet.\n\nThat will save you a lot of ankle and foot injuries.

Yes he will be okay. I had a concussion when I was younger and I had a knot on my head the size of a tennis ball. I had to stay awake and under observation at home for at least 24 hours with no sleep because it was a possibility that I could have died if I would've fallen asleep. After the observation period I made it and I was fine after that. If you want more details or more info, you can IM me. My screen name is alicias06.
