A member asked:
My 15yr old got a concussion almost 2 weeks ago. the headaches are improving, but he's had extreme fatigue. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extreme fatigue: extreme fatigue is not really normal in any situation. Please see your pediatrician for an assessment. Also, having a specific post-concussion assessment tool, such as the IMPACT test can also help provide some insight as to how he is functioning aside from symptoms such as headache.
