🏈 If you play sports or you have children who play sports, you need to know about concussion.
🧠 Concussion is a traumatic brain injury, which happens when your brain moves inside your skull because of a bump or blow to a head or body. It often happens in contact sports and road traffic accidents.
Symptoms may not appear right away; they can develop up to 72 hours after the injury and can include:
😨 Headache
🤢 Nausea
