What is a concussion?

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury. Concussions are caused by a bump or blow to the head. A mild or blow to the head can be serious. You can't see a concussion. Signs and symptoms of a concussion can show up right after the injury or may not appear or be noticed until days or weeks after the injury. If your player/student reports any symptoms of concussion, or if you notice the symptoms yourself, seek medical attention right away.

What should you do if you think your player/student has a concussion

1. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION RIGHT AWAY - A healthcare professional will be able to decide how serious the concussion is and when it is safe for your child to return to regular activities, including sports.
2. KEEP YOUR PLAYER/STUDENT OUT OF PLAY - Concussions take time to heal. Don't let your child return to play the day of the injury and until a health care professional says it's okay. Children who return to play too soon - while the brain is still healing - risk greater chance of having a second concussion. Repeat or later concussions can be very serious. They can cause permanent brain damage, affecting your child for a lifetime.

How can you help your player/student prevent a concussion or other serious brain injury?

Encourage them to practice good sportsmanship at all times. Make sure they wear the right protective equipment for their activity. Protective equipment should fit properly and be well maintained.

What are the signs and symptoms of a concussion?

• A headache or "pressure" in head
• Nausea or vomiting
• Balance problems or dizziness
• Double or blurry vision
• Sensitivity to light
• Sensitivity to noise
• Feeling sluggish, hazy, foggy, or groggy
• Concentration or memory problems
