A member asked:
Do people have different amounts of fluid in the brain that make them more or less prone to concussions
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: Different people of different ages and with different diseases process are going to have different amounts CSF in there head but this does not make you more or less pron to concussion per se. If you have more fluid from decreased brain tissue it is somewhat protective against serious brain injury.
