Did you know that 20% of high school athletes will suffer from a concussion? Shockingly, 50% of these concussions go unnoticed and unaddressed. Let’s delve into the topic of concussions. A concussion is considered a mild traumatic brain injury that should never be taken lightly. Even the mildest case can have serious, long-term effects if not treated properly. Contrary to popular belief, loss of consciousness is not a prerequisite for a concussion. It’s possible to sustain a concussion from a whiplash injury without any direct impact to the head. Don’t be fooled into thinking that sitting in a dark room for days or weeks is an appropriate solution.
