A member asked:

I've been cleared of my concussion for about 2 weeks now, is it safe to drink alcohol?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Concussion: Yes. In moderation and drink lots of water in between alcoholic beverages. However, in the US drinking alcohol under age 21 is illegal. Consider abstaining from drinking alcohol until old enough to drink legally.
