Concussion: Once you have experienced a concussion, the risk of another is significantly increased. Pay attention to your thinking, confusion, fatigue and any problem walking. If you have a question, contact your doctor or go to an emergency room.

Depends: The effects of concussions can vary and be unpredictable. It depends on the severity of the injury. The symptoms can include headache, dizziness, vision change (blurred vision/ double vision), nausea/vomiting. If you haven't fully recovered from a previous concussion, it can increase the chances of having a more severe injury from another head injury. ITs best to get checked.
