I purchased Sharper Image brand masks that are labeled as non-medical, but they look identical to the masks I see in hospitals and doctor's offices. My brother bought masks at CVS that are labeled as medical. Why is one labeled medical and the other non-medical, even though they look the same? Are they really different, or is it just a certification issue?

I was involved in an altercation where someone hit me on the head with a phone. I have anxiety and am worried about potential serious injuries. I experienced nausea and dizziness after drinking water, but no confusion or loss of consciousness. Is this normal, and should I be concerned about going to sleep or needing emergency treatment?
