Default Can head impulse test / head thrust test cause concussion or neck injury?
Just had the head impulse test (HIT) / head thrust test done by PT. I was very scared by how fast she did it and how quickly my head moved. Given that the movement is meant to be fast, could this not cause or aggravate a concussion/neck injury?
