jajaa,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. Every concussion leaves a some permanent damage. usually, it is not noticeable until under stress.

It sounds like you have hit your limit of head impacts. I bet you have a long string of head hits in your past, but they cleared quickly so you did not get concerned.

Time to hang up the lacrosse cleats. I doubt you will regain an ability to tolerate simple body checks let alone body checks that include a shoulder to the head. The jolts in the car likely aggravated a whiplash like injury. Whiplash and concussions go hand in hand. If you get one, you usually get the other too.

If you continued to play and suffered more hits, you would likely be chipping away at you future.

Read the sticky at the top called Vitamins and Supplements. It is good brain nutrition. Avoid brain altering chemicals. Plus, you may need to get some treatment for your upper neck. At least be careful with head and neck posture during rest and sleep.

tell us more about your symptoms. Are you sensitive to light and sounds ?

btw, Thanks for the many paragraphs. A good start but add double spacing after each paragraph so those of us with visual tracking issues can follow from line to line.

My best to you.
