Default What does it feel like to recover?

Nitro,

You posted in the wrong thread. Q & As belong in the discussion threads. Recovery happens differently for everyone. The vast differences in concussion tend to make every concussion different. Doctors try to group all concussion together and give general prognoses.

Add a whiplash injury and the matrix is very screwed up. You whiplash injuries can cause many concussion like symptoms. Getting good therapy for neck and neck to head injuries treating both bone and soft tissue injuries will help greatly.

At 8 weeks, I would bet you still have some unresolved neck and even upper back/shoulder injuries. These can all radiate muscle tension to the head.

The purely concussion oriented injuries can take weeks and months to heal. Not all PCS symptoms recover necessarily. You may be left with lingering symptoms. Head aches is a good example of lingering symptoms.
