A member asked:
Can being on electronics and watching tv/movies led to long term issues if done while having a concussion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Brain rest: There is no question, that following a concussion, a little bit of sustained brain rest is important, until headaches subside. As activity is slowly increased, any return of headache to activity is an indicator that you should slow down. There is no rushing recovery from concussion.
