What Is a Concussion?

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury that occurs when a sudden impact, blow, or force causes the brain to move rapidly within the skull. This can temporarily affect brain function and lead to a wide range of physical, cognitive, emotional, and balance-related symptoms.

Although many people recover within a few weeks, others may experience ongoing symptoms that require professional rehabilitation.

Early assessment and treatment can help reduce recovery time and minimize long-term complications.
