Hi there.

I've experienced a gradual recovery with numerous setbacks since my third concussion in October.

Yesterday, while at a friend's house, I was climbing the stairs and hit my head on the low ceilings. It wasn't hard, but it was enough to get me concerned. I don't think I was dizzy or dazed, but I was certainly distraught, because I was worried that the bump would provoke my symptoms.

So my question is this: just how sensitive or "tender" is the brain after a couple mild/moderate concussions. I've of course heard that one is more susceptible to concussions after incurring consecutive head injuries. Bumps like this happen to people all the time, and normally they're of no concern. But is the story different for someone who's suffered a few mTBI's? Even if something like this does aggravate symptoms, should it be considered another injury, or just an exacerbation of the original injury?

It's tough, because it's hard to avoid these little incidental bumps. Should I be concerned?
