Thumbs down New and need all the help I can get

I was a top athlete going into my freshmen year university where I was competing at the division 1 level. I collided one practice with a goalie and fell pretty hard. I was taken to the emergency room where the doctor diagnosed me with whiplash. I took a day off and then continued to practice and play games. After about a week of playing my headaches got so bad that I couldn't manage the pain and stopped playing. I had headaches constantly and was under extreme pressure from m coach to get better. There were times when I was extremely depressed and mad about the whole situation. During Christmas break I was put through brain training to try and help but there wasn't that much time for it. I tried to play again at Christmas but after a week of training and one game I found myself nauseous and sick. Since then I have been constantly trying to get back. It has been eight months now and the worst is over, for the most part I am fine except whenever I try to exercise I get headache and pressure behind my eye. I am home from school now for the summer and in desperate need of help to get back into training. If anyone knows of anything that can help with the process would be greatly appreciated. I am meeting with a sports doctor and dentist for my jaw. I also heard acupuncture is suppose to help? I am taking omega three's and B12 vitamins. I did drink for a bit at the end of school but I am done now.I would love any tips or advice that can help in any way!
