[quote=Anonymous]Dr. Gioia at Children's is one of the leading doctor's for concussions. http://www.childrensnational.org/research/faculty/bios/cnr/Gioia_G.aspx The most important thing with concussions is not to rush the recovery. The protocol for concussions is not to think, no video's or computers. Rest is the most important thing to let the brain recover. When your child goes back to school, it should be limited at first, on to 3 classes and then if they feel ok, expand how long they stay at school. No sports for at least 2-3 months. There is no such thing anymore as a mild concussion. Every concussion is considered a problem. You also want to make sure that they are careful because having another concussion close to the first can be really bad. [/quote]
