concussion
My daughter is 13 she is an Ice Hockey goalie that was hit in the head with a hockey puck during her stretch before a game. She had a helmet on but no mouth piece and wasn't looking as she was talking to the other goalie. She was not knocked out just stunned. Anyway this happened on Feb 18th and the recovery has been very slow. Her doc put her on amitriptline and it seamed to take away the headaches.
son had head injury 10 days ago playing hockey. today he informed me he was at emergency for having a stroke. said he had 2 today, and maybe 6 others in the past 3 days. today his left arm went num. emergency room sent him home, said he had anxiety attacks & told him to call a doctor in the morning?
The other day in pe my friend was hit very hard over the head with a hockey stick. She lay unconscious on the floor for a couple of minutes and then whenever anyone tried to talk to her she just couldnt keep eye contact with them and looked very confussed. She then attempted to vomit unsuccesfully many times before fading in and out of concsiousness. Is that concussion or is it more serious??

Hello my 11 year old son suffered a gr.2 concussion during a hockey game. He had a MRI which showed the brain was fine but after 3 months he still hasn't gone one day without getting a headache. He is itching to run around and play. Can he run, jump, ride a bike even if he is still getting headaches or should he do no physical activity even after 3 months? We're trying physio. now to see of it helps.
I went snowboarding yesterday and hit my head twice, hard and now have been having headaches, dizziness and sleepiness. I do not think I have a concussion because my pupils still dilate. I'm not sure whats going on but I need to know if it is serious or not since I play hockey and I don't want to say anything until I have had a second opinion.
I was hit from behind when playing ball hockey and I suffered a concussion after I went head first into the goalie. I had a cat scan done and it was normal immediately after the hit. Its been 11 months and everytime I try a light exercise for example walking around the block for about 20 minutes I get headaches. I used to swim, jog and play sports regularly and now since the accident I have gained a lot weight and don't know what to do to stay active.
I`ve suffered from three concussion over the spand of a few months. The first two within week of each other and 2 months after a third. The last one was in August.
Since then I have been very cautious to not hit my head but lets face it it`s nearly impossible. Kids will soft balls around and balls outside. They will flail their arms and hit your head or just nick you. Someone will bump into you and make you fall back. YOu will pull on something and it will make you jolt.
He has had severe headaches every day since I haPpened and even nausea a few times since then. Just wondering if he could have a concussion and if we should get it checked out...
5 days ago I took a hockey puck to the back of my head. It deflected into the bench, and I ducked but it took a bounce off the glass and struck me on the rear upper left side of my head. I had blurry vision immediately but was not unconscious. I didn't think much of it at the time.
Concussions and other brain injuries results from high-contact sports such as football, boxing, wrestling and hockey. Aside from headache, other symptoms noted are dizziness, lightheadedness, memory loss, nausea or vomiting, blurred vision and sensitivity to light, difficulty in concentrating or with balance. For complex concussion, symptoms may last longer than 7-10 days. Have her rest and to avoid any activities. It is also important to avoid loud, bright, busy environments.
I did hit my head in a hockey game. After getting concussion tested they recommended an mri to look at optic nerve because of vision problems caused by the hit(which went away a week or less after the hit). I’ve never had any symptoms but they looked at the MRI and said i had compatible results with a chiari malformation.
I went to the doctors, he said it allergies. So roughly a couple months go by and I was playing in a hockey game and I got hit the wrong way, my parents thought I had a concussion so we went to doctors he said I did. Then my symptoms just kept deteriorating and getting worse. They got so bad that I missed part of my sophmore year, and all of junior year being home schooled.
A translation of that possible diagnosis would be greatly appreciated!! FYI, she is a high level hockey player and was knocked out in a game over a year ago. She was diagnosed with a 2nd degree concussion. Last May she had an "episode" which was diagnosed as vertigo. Thank you for any assistance you can offer in the translation of those daunting words in the report. March seems such a LONG way off and as you can understand we are VERY concerned about her.
Okay - for those hockey fans who are following the drama over the Phoenix Coyotes (deja vu Nashville Preds all over again only different) - I happen to live smack where the Rim billionaire calls home. So there is ALOT of talk here about this and of course plenty of drama over it. I get plenty of information from a Canadian perspective. What I'd really like to know, for those in the U.S. in that area who know anything about this is what's the scuttlebutt down that way?

I suffered a traumatic hip subluxation in a hockey game 20 years ago. After many years of being unable to get imagery, I finally had an MRI and I have 2 labral tears with cysts. I laid off hockey for 18 months due to Covid and did mostly cycling, hiking and swimming. I had very good pain levels and felt almost normal. Well, hockey fired up and after the first game back I was nearly crippled the next day.
