Sam,

There is no 'concussion' medication. There are meds that help with some symptoms, like head aches. There is not a medication for the fogginess.

The best way to help with recovery is to avoid activities that cause a return or increase in symptoms. Pushing through will slow or stop your recovery.

You and your parents have a decision to make. Are you going to become informed about concussions and how best to recover, or are you going to push forward for the sake of image and staying on schedule and flounder for months or even years ?

Have you had a full neurological exam ? Your numbness could be from a neck injury. Do you have any, even slight stiffness or tenderness in or around your neck or behind your ears ?
