A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sports concussion: The highest risk for repeat concussion occurs within a two week window after the initial injury. Depending on the severity of the concussion, the time out of sports may be longer. It is important to be evaluated by a sports medicine physician who specializes in concussions and receive clearance from that doctor to resume play.
