đź§ Concussions are invisible injuries with lasting impact
Concussions are considered mild traumatic brain injuries that can significantly impact cognition, communication, and daily functioning.
Symptoms may include:
⚡ Persistent headache or pressure
⚡ Cognitive changes (slowed processing, poor memory, difficulty concentrating)
⚡ Vestibular symptoms (dizziness, imbalance, blurred vision)
⚡ Sensory sensitivity (light/noise)
⚡ Altered sleep or fatigue
Clinical recommendations if concussion is suspected:
âś… Immediately discontinue physical or cognitive exertion
âś… Seek prompt evaluation from a medical professional trained in brain injury management
âś… Adhere to individualized recovery protocols before returning to work, school, or sport
The brain requires time and care to heal — early recognition and management make all the difference.
