Will a person know when they have or had a concussion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Three ways: 1) you cannot account for a period of time following the event-even if your friends or other observers say you acted awake 2) you have difficulty concentrating, easily distracted, bit irritable, sleeping is off, mild headache 3) if you hop on one foot, trying to stay on a floor target, you find you cannot stay on the target for ten hops.
