See below: You want to conservatively have 1 week symptom free existenence (no headache or dizziness) before playing again. Seek out your pediatrician/internist/family practitioner or a sports medicine physician/orthopedic doc or neurologist to ensure you are improving-or to attain clearance.

Please be patient: Seems you still possess some postconcussional symptoms, and best you not risk additional injury until all is settled down. Would very closely with neurologist or physiatrist, and get treatment for current symptoms. Likely, you will improve dramatically over next few weeks.

CONCUSSION: It is best to discuss this with your Neurologist who knows your medical history. If you are uncomfortable with your Dr. consult with another for a 2nd opinion.
