Hi all,
Had PCS for three months now. The symptoms have not been improving at all. Anyways, yesterday I got a stupid idea and started shadow boxing. After one uppercut in the air, I could feel my head/brain jolt so I stopped. After that I started feeling increasing fatigue, brain fog, dizziness and other symptoms. Is it possible that I got a new concussion from this? |

LostSoul, You say you have had PCS for 3 months.
Can you tell us some details about the impact and your diagnosis, symptoms, treatment, self-treatment, and timeline? No, shadow boxing did not cause a concussion. You should get the idea of boxing out of your mind. Boxing is all about damaging brains.

Have you had a vestibular assessment? A bump like that can dislodge the inner ear crystals that help with balance. The resulting vestibular over stimulation can cause a serious fatigue problem.
Muscle spasms behind the ears with tenderness at the bony spots behind the ears can cause headaches. Any forward impact of the head from behind can disrupt the proper position of the skull on C-1 and C-2. It only take 5 Gs to injure this joint. It takes 60 Gs to cause a concussion. 80% of concussion like symptoms are from this upper neck trauma. A vestibular assessment should be a high priority.
