Concussions

A concussion is a type of brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or body that causes the brain to move rapidly inside the skull. While some symptoms may appear right away, others may take hours or days to develop — and without proper treatment, recovery can take much longer than expected.

• Headache or pressure in the head
• Dizziness, balance problems, or confusion
• Difficulty concentrating or remembering
• Nausea or vomiting
• Sensitivity to light or noise
• Fatigue or changes in sleep pattern

Important: Even a “mild” concussion can cause serious long-term problems if not properly diagnosed and managed.

• About 3.8 million concussions occur in the U.S. each year (CDC estimate).
• Concussions can happen in sports, car accidents, falls, or everyday activities — not just athletics.
• Sleep disturbance after a concussion is one of the most common — and most overlooked — causes of prolonged symptoms.
• Multiple concussions or delayed treatment can increase the risk of long-term cognitive problems.
