[quote=Anonymous]My son (high school) got a football concussion. We went to a concussion specialist who specializes in athletes in a neurologist practice. He was put on 3 weeks of total cognitive rest. No school, no schoolwork. No reading, no video gAmes, no iPad. Interestingly, he was free to watch TV, because TV is a completely passive activity in terms of cognitive activity. So he watched TV for 3 weeks straight while he was home. There was nothing else to do! He recovered well. For a week or so he was extremely irritable. Got headaches, sensitive to sound and light. Last 2 weeks of recovery were much better. [/quote]
