A member asked:
Could symptoms of a head injury get worse after exercise (50 minute run)?

Yes: People recovering from a concussion are susceptible to easy fatigue which will contribute to recurrence of symptoms. Build up your exercising starting slowly and building up slowly to avoid the tiring effect.
