A member asked:
Could you get permanent damage to the brain after getting two concussions in a period of 6 months. i am worried i won't be able to function.

Avoid head trauma: Repeated head trauma can cause chronic problems. Try not to worry about what has happened in the past as this will only make things worse. Instead, focus on avoiding activities in which you might experience additional head trauma, such as contact sports, etc.
