Default PCS Recurring Symptoms

Hello all, I'm new to this site: 26 months ago I suffered a concussion playing hockey. I improved over about 2 weeks and tried to go back to playing. I noticed that I got recurring sypmtoms from being lightly jolted, both on the ice and elsewhere (riding a bike, jumping off a box, etc). Relatively light jostling would bring back the fogginess, dizziness, and fatigue. The symptoms recede over a few days or weeks. I describe it to my friends and family as though I now have a "china cabinet" for a head. 26 months into this recovery I still am suffering from this same issue and it really restricts my ability to stay active. I have three questions: (1) What causes this "china cabinet" phenomon, does anyone know? (2) Can I expect this to ever go away given that I'm 26 months post concussion? And, (3) given the media attention given to CTE lately, is my brain suffering further damage as a result of these very light bumps and related symptoms?

Mark from Idaho seems to have similar issues. Mark, any advice??

I appreciate the help-
