"have been told it's monitored but usually only kept in overnight, ye?
Depends on the severity "
This.
I've been somewhat involved in some combat sports and have seen people kept in for 3-4 days over a bad punch to the body due to swelling near the heart. When any major organ has suffered any trauma (especially the brain), it's always better to be safe than sorry! Don't be too focused on getting out, if they reccomend staying in longer, then try be positive about it, realize it's for the best and catch up on Corrie 
This is just my opinion, I'm not a medical professional in any way! |

I spent 12 hours in A&E with a concussed child. Only to be sent home with a leaflet of signs to look out for...that's why we were there in the first place, dizziness, drowsiness, nauseous, blurred vision.
He had a fractured jaw bone.
3 days later I got a phone call to bring him back asap.
Never be afraid to look a fool when it comes to your health or someone you care for |

Concussion, the big bad word.
Playing Rugby you could get concussed often. Never kept in.
But look at the GAA players they could be knocked out on the pitch and the doctors let them run back on the pitch.
I suggest having a very good friend to monitor it, doctors don't really give a monkey. |
