Concussions often result in a roller coaster of symptoms. The ups and downs can be quite extreme.

Concussion vs tumor ???? A tumor is a dangerous abnormal growth. It is a very rare condition that would not have a roller coaster of symptoms.

Your PCP is just as good at diagnosing a concussion as a neuro. Most neuros are no better at treating concussions that PCPs. In fact, neither have much they can do to treat a concussion except for some of the extreme symptoms.

The only advise for a quick recovery is to not worry about a quick recovery. The time it takes to recover is individual. You can do things to slow recovery but you can not speed it up. Avoid stress. Get good brain nutrition. Avoid bad brain foods and beverages. Check out the Vitamins sticky at the top. Get good rest.

How did you celebrate the 4th ?
