It seems like a lot of people complain that minor head bumps bring back their symptoms or wipe out their progress, myself included. For me each head bump sets me back about a year and then by the time a year passes by I bump my head again and that's why my pcs has been going on 6 years now.

I think the best solution is to protect the head with a helmet or protective hat or bump cap. Here are a few of the more stylish ones.

LINERZ INSERTS

I have to the second and third one. The Linerz insert is great because you can put it in any hat. The Crashe hat has a 6-piece hard shell but the rubber is really thin. Neither fits as well as I would like so I plan on purchasing the Ribcap soon. It has the thickest padding and comes in different sizes so it should work best.

I suggest getting several hats so you have a variety to wear for different times of the day or various activities. Given the devastating consequences of a head bump or repeat concussion it would be wise to wear a helmet at all times.

Does anyone else have experience with these? Do you wish you were wearing one when you bumped your head?
