A member asked:
Could you have a concussion, but be awake the whole time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See definition: Dictionary definition: head trauma resulting in loss of consciousness, loss of memory, or a combination of both. So, in some cases, especially, in football, the player's "bell is rung", seems awake, but is confused and disoriented.
