Concussions

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury typically caused by a blow to the head or a violent shaking of the head and body. It results in a temporary disruption of normal brain function, leading to various symptoms such as headache, dizziness, confusion, memory problems, and sometimes loss of consciousness. While most concussions resolve on their own with rest, repeated concussions or failing to manage them properly can lead to long-term cognitive and neurological issues, emphasizing the importance of prompt and appropriate medical evaluation and care for individuals who experience a concussion
