Back again! 1 MONTH SINCE CONCUSSION.

Got headaches again after a couple of days without having them back In August..but they are in a diffrent place.

Question 1. I wear glasses so if my glasses are outsated perscription,could that make me have headaches more?

Question 2. I have ADHD and was diagnosed with it when I was 6 and took Rinalin from Kindergarten to 7th grade and I was thinking about going back on it because it was hard to consintrade last year in 9th grade and the question is that will Rinalin help for my concussion.

Good to see you.

Yes, it is possible to get headaches from the glasses needing upgrading.
It's worth having an eye test to see. It may not be your eyes, but you never know.

Can't help with the Ritalin question I'm sorry.
Be worth asking your doctor about that one.

I haven't been wearing my glasses lately and the headches are in the spot where if you have outdated glasses with headaches and my headavhes did go away for like a week or a half a week then came back In a diffrent spot.

I will probley go back on ritalin because I can't focus at schooo and maybe it will help for my concussion like the mental thinking part if it

Thanks!

True, it may help, but please ask the doctor about the Ritalin just to be sure.
