Hit received in ear
Today there was a big quarrel among my friends in our hostel. Two of my best friends were fighting. They are giving slaps and blows to each other. I wanted to stop the fighting, so I stood in between them but unfortunately one of a powerful slap/blow hit me directly in my ear. I had no bleeding but I feel like I am unconscious. Will the slap disturb my balance/equilibrium? Will my brain get damaged? I am a student and I have lots of things to do in my life. Will it damage by balance/equilibrium?
