Recognizing the Symptoms of a Concussion
Concussions are one of the most common head injuries, especially in sports. It’s important to recognize the signs early to avoid further damage. Symptoms of a concussion include:
- Headache or pressure in the head
- Confusion or feeling “foggy”
- Nausea or vomiting
- Sensitivity to light or noise
- Dizziness or balance issues
- Trouble concentrating or remembering things

Head Injuries Caused by Sports
Athletes, particularly those in high-contact sports like football, soccer, and hockey, are at significant risk for head injuries such as concussions. The physical nature of these sports increases the likelihood of impact to the head, leading to both immediate and long-term effects if not treated promptly. Sports-related concussions are common, and if left untreated, can result in prolonged symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and cognitive difficulties. Recognizing the early signs and seeking professional care is critical to ensuring a full recovery and preventing further injury.
Head injuries are not limited to professional athletes; children and teens participating in youth sports are also at risk. In fact, 1 in 14 kids experiences a significant head injury at some point, according to research. These injuries can have lasting consequences, especially for the developing brain, making early intervention and proper rehabilitation essential. At Next Level Physical Therapy, we provide dedicated care for sports-related head injuries, focusing on a comprehensive recovery to ensure a safe return to activity, whether it's on the field or in everyday life.
