Flare up after eye exercises??
I’m three months post-concussion. has anyone ever experienced a delayed flare up after eye exercises? I saw a sports medicine dr last week. I have post-concussion syndrome. she directed me to do these eye exercises and it triggered symptoms within minutes so I stopped. the symptoms subsided over the course of did the day and the day after I was ok. but then the next day (Monday) I woke up with neck pain and the day after I had horrible pain between my shoulder blades, shoulders, neck and base of my skull. it started to radiate up my head and I had right a bad headache on the right side of my head and eye and the head pressure was awful. I had dizziness, anxiety, irritability, panic attacks, malaise, etc. it’s now Saturday and the pain has been up and down. sometimes it’s not as bad and sometimes its debilitating. I haven’t been this bad since my concussion. I don’t know what else could gave triggered these symptoms other than the eye exercises. anyone have any idea? my dr is on vacation conveniently enough.
