North has been knocked unconscious three times in recent months, including in last Friday's 52-30 win over Wasps.
Saints coach Jim Mallinder said: "We won't play him at the weekend. Clearly he had a nasty knock.
"He's making good progress. The day after he was up and about.
"He's improving and down there at the moment going to see a neurologist and we'll wait to see what the experts say."
