Month ago i had a concussion.how long is the brain vulnerable for a second?i breaked hard while driving 10 mph.could that cause concusion again?thanks

Not really: The brain is always vulnerable. I do not think that such a minor acceleration/deceleration exacerbate another concussion. Usually symptoms from a concussion resolved within 6 to 8 weeks.
