What should you do during the week following a concussion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Concussion: REST mentally and physically. Avoid any triggers causing concussion symptoms like headache, dizziness, Nausea, balance problems, light/noise sensitivity etc. Treat the Headache with Naproxen twice a day as this seems to work better for concussion headaches. 4 grams of Fish Oil highly recommended for 30 days as well. Follow up with physician 48-72 hours after initial concussion evaluation.
