Children and teenagers suffer more than 173,200 concussions every single year. Concussions are traumatic brain injuries caused by force to the head and are actually the number one injury among athletes. Normally an individual experiencing a concussion exhibits some type of symptoms immediately after the incident occurs. Symptoms can vary greatly from case to case and so it is important for patients to see a professional as soon as possible in order to be correctly diagnosed and treated.
