🧠 4 Facts You Might Not Know About Concussion!
1️⃣ Concussions impact more than just your brain! Multiple systems can be affected – including your neck, cognition, vision, vestibular system, and autonomic function.
2️⃣ Symptoms aren’t always immediate. They can be delayed up to 2–3 days after the injury.
3️⃣ If symptoms stick around longer than 3 months, it’s called Persistent Post-Concussion Symptoms (PPCS) – and it’s more common than you think.
4️⃣ Even if it’s been months (or years), there’s still hope. Concussion rehab can help retrain and heal your affected systems with:
✔️ Nervous system regulation
✔️ Visual & vestibular training
✔️ Balance & aerobic exercise
✔️ Neck mobility & strength
✔️ Cognitive rehab & sleep hygiene
✔️Functional return to work, school, and sport
