Oksana Grigorieva was diagnosed with a concussion two days after she fought with Mel Gibson, Breaking Celebrity News is reporting exclusively.
The diagnosis can be a crucial part of the criminal and civil investigations into Gibson’s behavior, providing documentation for Oksana’s charges and turning her doctor into an important witness.
Oksana's Broken Teeth and The Abrasion on Baby Lucia's Face
Oksana sought treatment from her dentist on January 7 and her doctor on January 8 this year. As Breaking Celebrity News was first to report, Oksana has told authorities Mel punched her in the mouth and the side of the head while she held their infant daughter Lucia.
The Russian-born musician’s two upper front teeth were damaged, with the veneer snapped off of one and cracked on another. Breaking Celebrity News exclusively published a photo of Oksana’s damaged mouth.
Now we’ve learned that she visited Dr. Arthur Gordon on January 8 and was diagnosed with a concussion.
“Oksana’s doctor diagnosed her with a concussion. It was a result of the punches to her face,” a source with knowledge of the situation told Breaking Celebrity News.
“She stayed in bed for weeks following the incident because she was suffering from bad headaches and was dizzy.”
The doctor could be a key witness in the investigation of the events of January 6. It provides Oksana with independent proof that she was injured, adding much weight to her charge that Mel punched her and turning the case away from a he-said, she-said battle.
In explosive audio obtained and released exclusively by Breaking Celebrity News, Oksana accuses him of hitting her and he says: “You f**king deserved it.”
Oksana also says that their baby suffered a tiny mark to her face as a result of Mel’s violence and that she took a photograph of the injury.

Mel claimed that Oksana shook the baby – an allegation she strongly denies.
