CONCUSSION

It is critical to recognize concussions when they happen and it is just as critical to continue to monitor for symptoms for several days and even a week after a suspected or possible concussion. Remember, this is an injury. Like any other injury, it must heal before the area is exercised again or further damage can occur.

When to See a Professional

The signs and symptoms of a concussion can be subtle and may not be immediately apparent. Symptoms may not appear until 24-48 hours after an event. Common symptoms after a concussive traumatic brain injury are headache, dizziness, fatigue, feeling off balance, mood changes, difficulty concentrating and remembering things and even sleep disruption.

See a medical professional within 1 to 2 days if:

Symptoms are getting worse or not improving.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that you call your child's doctor for advice if your child receives anything more than a light bump on the head.
