Default Head Injury

Hey guys, hopefully someone can figure this out for me.

A little over a year ago I got 2 concussions within a 3 week span playing hockey. Being in first year university all year and working in retail over the summer I didn't have too much physical activity. During that time I would help with some chores around the house and one thing I noticed was that if I was shovelling or sweeping and I bent my head over so I could see what I was doing, the same kind of pain I had during my concussion would come back for about 10 minutes after I steadied my head back up. Anyways this summer I took a job doing lots of physical labour and it turns out to be mostly consisting of shovelling and sweeping and the pain keeps coming back. Is it possible that this pain is related to my concussion? It isn't the same pain as the dehydration headaches I have had throughout my life so that rules that out.

Thanks in advance
