Hello All-

First Posting. I had a concussion 1.5 years ago (long story), and still have many problems. One of the remaining problems is head sensitivity to motion. I feel pain or increased concussion symptoms, from walking, riding or driving in a car (bumps, turns), other movements etc. At this point I know that it is not a visual problem. I had my neck investigated pretty thoroughly, and that that is loosened up, not causing the problem. I think the head sensitivity is a typical symptom for concussion at first, but mine has not improved. Just wondering if this head motion sensitivity could be something other than PCS? I appreciate any comments.

Jim,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Head sensitivity to light bumps or movement is not uncommon. I have lived with this symptom for decades. I doubt it has any other cause. I have learned many behavioral modifications. I never shake my head, not even to signify No. I am careful when driving or riding on a rough road. I am more purposeful with my movements.

If you have any specific movements that cause you problems, post here an I will offer my personal solution.

Please feel free to tell us about your other problems. Don't worry about telling a long story. Just use double paragraph spaces every five lines for those of us with visual scanning struggles.

My best to you.

I have similar issues. I have been told it is the damage to the vestibuar system. You may want to get that assessed so you can begin some retraining therapies, if needed.
Good luck!
