[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who advised you to get him checked out first a concussion? That’s nuts to go to the ER because he got hit in the head by a soccer ball? That’s just ridiculous.

And no urgent care wants to deal with it because of the liability that it is the one in a million case there is a significant injury and they miss it. [/quote]

If they went to the ER, it was obviously a huge hit. Be glad it didn’t happen to your kid[/quote]

In and out in an hour with no scans or concussions = not a big hit. It's a soccer ball being kicked by young kid.

I realized ER's aren't going to do much after I was pitching baseballs to my 11 year old son and he hit a line drive straight into my forehead right above my eyes. I was standing in front of the pitching mound on flat ground not the hill like a moron without the portable fence.  I fell to the ground and immediately my forehead started swelling. By the next morning I had the start of two black eyes and a huge raised bump with the imprint of a baseball lace stitching. My husband drove me to urgent care but they told me to go to the ER. The ER doctor said they don't worry as much when you get hit on the forehead. Released with no scan, mild concussion and a $1100 bill AFTER insurance. [/quote]
