What is a Concussion?
A concussion is an injury that affects brain function. Any hit to your head, face, neck or body can cause a concussion. That’s if the force is enough to jostle your brain inside your skull. Contact sports are a common source of concussions. But you can also get them from other incidents. For example, automobile or bicycle collisions, or a workplace accident. It could be something as simple as bumping your head against a cupboard door.
