After getting a concussion, how quickly can you sleep?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sleep & concussion: After an evaluation by a physician finds no bleeding within the head and no dangerous swelling, your physician can tell you if you can go to sleep. This will likely be several hours after concussion.
