Concussion: This will depend on the duration and severity of symptoms, persistent symptoms like headache or fogginess, etc. It will also depend on the type of work you do. It would be good to check with your physician if you have any doubts. Hope you feel better soon.

Work return: The treating physician would be better to answer this question. He is the one that should have released you for work and given you an accurate time frame. I would contact the hospital where you were treated.
