I really could go on and on. But these are people who took blows to the head for years upon years before we really knew about the how serious head trauma is.
There is currently a serious issue with respect to football players and concussions in the NFL and their symptoms closely mirror what you indicate. Head bounces from a soccer ball can cause skull bone issues especially for younger individuals.
For all of you parents reading this post, make sure your children avoid similar manuvers with a soccer ball. The weight of the ball multiplied by the speed of the hit on the head can cause serious injuries for children.
Guess what guys.! I got a concussion. ): Done with football for the season and sports for the whole YEAR!!! Hopefully we can let me do discus at the end of the year...NOT A CONTACT SPORT....They are talking about taking me out of football for good. Which I understand...but I got the concussion off of punting which I NEVER do except for tht one time.
First I want to say Hello and to Thank anyone who replies. I have no idea on how to inform my son that his dreams and hard work has been, from now on anyway, is fruitless. How do you tell your 14 year old son that he will no longer be able to play his favorite sport? My son was diagnosed as a incidental finding of an 8mm Chiari malformation type 1. This was a routine MRI, so we thought, after a concussion. There are only three things this child cares about.
s almost impossible that the current level of your head trauma would lead to something sinister. However, I strongly advise against pursuing a career in NFL, as it seems that some people, probably due to a genetic predisposition, are more prone to CTE. To put it simply, one guy gets whacked in the head every day and doesn't mind, the other has something with his blood brain barrier and develops CTE. Unfortunately, those genes are not known.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on Monday suspended running back Ray Rice indefinitely after a new video surfaced that shows the player punching his future wife in an elevator in February, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said on Twitter. The incident had originally led Goodell to suspend Rice for the first two games of the regular season.

t expect much from doctors and if possible try to find someone who specializes in concussion/MTBI. For memory, anger best to consult a neuro psychologist.
The best thing is to rest and take it easy. Not sure pushing much will help or not. Each brain injury is unique and you have to find the right thing for you. I haven't found mine yet.
good luck.
It is abundantly clear that in some cases concussions may result in seizures. That is not a "theory". It is a medical fact. It doesn't require "discussion". But not all concussions result in a seizure. There can be varying degrees of damage depending on the severity off the blow, where the impact takes place, and from resultant swelling, and if there is a delay in seeking medical attention. A "concussion" is not a "concussion".
I am a concussion survivor. Could you get a concussion if your head stops suddenly from a fast movement?
Yesterday I was in a hurry and running and pushed the door in front of me. It stopped abruptly which caused my body to stop too. Could this cause a concussion? I'm scared because I am recovering from a concussion already. Does it make me more prone to brain injury?
Please, help me!
Sounds like you might have a concussion. A concussion is a mild brain injury caused by a knock or blow to the head or a sudden change in motion. See a doctor just in case.
I am curious about everyone's opinion of the sanctions imposed on the NFL coaches and players regarding "Headhunting".
Were they strict enough to deter this type of behavior in the future? Were the fines large enough to cause an NFL player to think again before trying to deliberately hurt another player?
I don't think one year suspension for a coach is enough if he is guilty of this but, I don't have all of the facts.
What do you guys think?

Make sure to tell the doctor about all of the workouts you're doing, to make sure you're not perpetuating the problem by doing a specific exercise. Hope you start to improve!
Does any of you follow the NFL? Here in DK it can be a little challenging because the networks ins't exactly seeing this as a multi-million possibility...
Just saw that the season is about to start and I figured - hey - there must be some of my american homeboys and homegirls who whatch this - anybody?
A doctor generally looks for focal neurological or generalized neurological symptoms that would show there is a pressure on brain somewhere. In absence of these symptoms and based on the history a diagnosis of concussion is given.
If concussion is severe, and there is underlying brain injury, then yes, even death can occur. Hope this helps! Take care!
