Hockey Helmets

I play ice hockey, and I've been having a bit of trouble with my helmet because it puts a lot of pressure on my temples. Its usually fine for the first period or so, but by the second period my head starts to hurt and I get very nauseous. By the end of the game I'm pretty dizzy and I have trouble with my vision. Do you know what the possible mechanism might be behind this? I doubt its serious, but I do remember a concussion I got by taking a shot to temple playing football when I was younger, and I had similar symptoms. I wonder if the constant pressure could be causing a similar problem. Unfortunetly, the next size helmet the school has covers my eyes, so I'll probably have to go out and buy my own helmet.

Also, if you have any idea where I left my stick, I'd be much obliged, or else I'll have to go out and buy one of those, too.

I used to play hockey, and I remember having a similar problem - the helmet very uncomfortably pressing the temples. I had to wear a too-large helmet to avoid that problem. It seems we have a head shape that's different from the standard model the helmet manufacturers use in their design. One thing you could do is go to a specialist sports store and have them mold the inner lining of the helmet, customized to your head shape

I guess we both must be too smart, or something.

I'm new to the sport, and now have a new appreciation for the saying, "he's tough, he's a hockey player". If I had my druthers I'd go without a helmet, but since I have a propensity to spend more time sprawled on my back on the ice instead of upright on my skates, its probably not a good idea.I think it's more like we're thick headed than smart.

As a neurosurgeon I am all for wearing a helmet!Yeah, that probably makes more sense.

I totally agree. My neighbour's son had a similar problem and had his helmet customized. It worked great!
