[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]20 concussions between the ages of 4-18? Of the 19 soccer ones it would be nice to know how many were confirmed, how many were from headers vs collisions, etc. And also at what point were parents or coaches going to say this is beyond dangerous to continue?[/quote] Yeah, 20 concussions is an abnormally high amount and not from heading a soccer ball. There is more detail/nuance to this that just isn't provided. [/quote] OP here. I didn't read the full research, but the summary did say "approximately 20 concussions," so not all of them were officially diagnosed. It could mean the doctors did an estimation years later when his symptoms first appeared by asking him questions like, "How often did you feel you dizzy after a game or practice?"[/quote]
