Concussion can really be described as a mild form of traumatic brain injury where sudden acceleration or deceleration of the brain occurs following any considerable impact-to the head or elsewhere on the body. Such movement causes impaired functioning of brain cells, and disrupted blood flow leads to symptoms including:
Should you develop any of these symptoms after suffering an impact, it is necessary to seek professional help from a qualified concussion clinic in Abbotsford.
Early diagnosis and treatment can prevent long-term complications. Don’t ignore the signs—visit a trusted concussion clinic in Abbotsford to ensure a safe and complete recovery.
Seeking medical attention right after a concussion has the utmost importance. Research works by repeatedly showing that the sooner concussion management is sought for assessment, the better is the outcome with respect to recovery.
The first recommendation is rest, symptom limited, for about 24 to 48 hours. Following this initial rest, it’s very important that physical and mental activity gradually be reintegrated, under supervision from a medical professional.
In case the symptoms persist for more than 7 to 10 days, rehabilitation specific to address impairments in vision, balance, neck function, and cognition may be required.
Our post-concussion rehab program in Abbotsford includes:
