A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a blow or jolt to the head or body that causes the brain to move rapidly within the skull. This sudden movement can lead to temporary disruption in normal brain function. Concussions are common in contact sports, falls, road traffic collisions, and other incidents involving blunt force trauma.

Symptoms can vary widely but often include headache, dizziness, confusion, memory loss, nausea, blurred vision, and sensitivity to light or noise. In some cases, symptoms may be delayed and can develop over hours or even days. Loss of consciousness is not required for a concussion to occur.

Assessment typically involves checking for cognitive impairment, balance issues, and neurological symptoms. While most concussions resolve with rest and gradual return to activity, repeated concussions can have serious long-term effects, including chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

Anyone suspected of having a concussion should be monitored closely and referred for medical evaluation. It’s essential not to return to high-risk activities until fully recovered, as a second concussion before full recovery can lead to more severe brain injury.
