Did you know that Concussions can lead to Headaches and Migraines 😳

A concussion is a traumatic brain 🧠 injury that affects your brain function. Effects are usually temporary but can include headaches 🤕 and problems with concentration, memory, balance and coordination.

Concussions are usually caused by a blow to the head. 🤕 Violently shaking the head and upper body also can cause concussions. Some concussions 😳cause you to lose consciousness, but most do not. It’s possible to have a concussion and not realize it.

Concussions are particularly common if you play a contact sport, such as rugby🏉 or it can happen in workplace injuries or car accidents. Most people usually recover fully after a concussion.

Often after concussion it is very normal for a person to start complaining of headaches 🤕and migraines. This is because with a concussion injury a whiplash associated movement can result in the alteration of the neck joints!

– nausea 🥴
