July 18th, 2014

 When you experience an impact of direct force to the head, or force transmitted to the head via the neck or chest, this may result in a concussion. A brain injury which can have serious and detrimental effects on brain function and behavior. Injuries at work, accidents at home or on the road, and sports related injuries are all potential causes of concussions. If you are experiencing any of the following signs and symptoms typical of this sort of injury, do not hesitate to contact the best concussion program Philadelphia residents can find:
