1 year and 6 months in, constant migraines and head pain, I have a very healthy diet and my sleeps gotten better. If I move too quickly or pick slightly heavy items up my symptoms flare up. I regularly go for walks and do no weighted squats when I can. Been also taking fish oil tablets and drinking herbal ginger tea and I still feel the same as I was when I got the injury. This shts depressing
I can totally relate to what you are saying I think for me the emotion of the day along with the pain and confusion of not getting the right treatment completely threw me if I had been sent to the hospital straight away I would have had the neck brace I needed but I got worse the the next day and ended up in A&E .
Apparently CBD Oil has potential for post concussion
How bad was your concussion? How long was the expected recovery time?
@@carter5599 they said a couple of months but I’m still suffering from it today
Have you tried eating more protein or sleeping really really early? Protein is a thing that I Gathered from the internet. The internet also has some people saying take vitamin b12 or other supplements. Sleeping really really early helps me A little bit. I have this slight dizziness that won't go away. It actually disappeared for 1 day and I was so happy. I thought it was gone for good. And then it came back the next day when I spent too much time. Looking at my computer screen in a darker room. I am still trying to deal with the slight dizziness. I don't know what I should do.
I fell of my horse and on my head (had a good European standard helmet on). I was far away and HAD to walk my horse home, about 2miles. Couldn’t ride, was too dizzy. I honestly think that helped my recovery. I walked slowly, let all the adrenaline go, “enjoyed the views” and in general started to feed “healing” thoughts into my body.
Had to run 5ks home after running into a tree, almost knocking me out. Was yesterday, see how it heals 🤞🏻
Fell of my dirtbike and knocked myself out about 3 miles from my house, still don’t remember how I rode back home. But I was lucky enough I didn’t kill my self in the middle of nowhere
I’ve been running most of life and I’m 44. I found that running 1-2 miles 3-4 times per week helped my recovery within the 1st 2 months. Smoking definitely worsens or negatively effects symptoms. Avoid smoking and alcohol if possible
This info is on point and I thank the researchers that have made massive leaps in understanding concussion and recovery over the past few years but it can also be quite misleading info. Exersise is very good for concussion recovery but its all about having the right amount and the right types of exersise, as in not too strenuous. The very tough part is getting the right amount part correct. I was very fit when I crashed at 250kmph just over 3 years ago and got a major knock to the head and broke and dislocated my neck. Spent a week lying in a bed waiting for spine fusion surgory after the crash and the 2 days after the op I was discharged from hospital to my home, where I lived by myself. Struggled really hard at first, then a week or so later had a visit from a concussion rehab team, didn't even know I had a concussion just thought I was really messed up from the speed of the crash. Didn't really listen to their advice much, at first, and as I healed I started trying to push my limits physically, thats when I had my first of what they call a flare up, could feel my heart pounding, severe migrane, extreme light and noise sensitivity and very anxious. In the grand scheme of things to come the first flare up wasn't really bad but as I kept over doing things, not just exersise but things like over exposure to lcd screens (phones, tvs, etc.), noise (going to cafe's or waiting rooms at the hospital), then the insomnia started and that was a very quick downhill spiral into mental health issues leading to suicidal intent. Luckyily I reached out to my physio, who I had know for over 15 years and they sent me to mental health services who then took action and made me move in with my dad for support while I recovered. The compiled actions of over doing it made me have flare up that lasted over a week (normally they last 2 hours) and taking months to just recover from the flare up (normally around 2 weeks recovery from a flare up). After 2 weeks of resting in bed at dads with a pillow over my eyes due to light burning them and ear plugs in due to the extreme noise sensitivity, only getting up to have 3 meals a day and toilet and shower times, I finally was allowed to start rehab again. This consisted, at first, packaging a handful of lollies into a bag for the up coming Halloween (we love Halloween as a family) the first day I managed 5 bags before I was at my limit, by the end of the first week I had slowly made my way up to 10 bags a day. It took 18 months of rehab from the concussion team to get me back to a return to work program where I started off doing work for 2 hours a day to build upto a 9 hour working day. I'm over 3 years from my accident and I'm still not at the capacity of what I was before the accident. Major lesson in concussion and the rehab from it, it needs to be the right stuff at the right amount. Not just exersise but noise and light exposure, eye movements, lcd screen exposure, and much more. Doing things like reading, cognitive games for memory and puzzles and eye movement exersises are all great things for recovery. Brain rehab is so complex and can take a very long time. Without the support of my concussion rehab team I would most likely have taken my life, even if I didn't I wouldn't be anywhere near as recovered as I am today.
i was concussed in bout 2018 and now i get a concussion again due to accident. despite i got the different doctors they suggest me to rest and restrict me to exercise , the first one come with a bed rest, and the second told me to rest as well till i get better. thats to say its better to rest till u totally recovered.
I found it was my neck that suffered long term after a head injury and it was too painful to exercise ..then later down the line I exercised But I found if I taped my head in the smallest way it would bring every emotion back I I would burst into tears with confusion of these feelings and it takes me ages to calm myself down ,its been going on for 9 years after I smashed my head coming up from a heavy table and cutting my head and getting whiplash as well I think the fact that the doctor let me down and did not send me to the hospital broke my trust and the next day I ended up in hospital after falling apart with pain and dizziness ..horrible ...I did start writing poetry so something good came from it .
If you've had a concussion - light and noise are like a nail in your brain
not for everyone. The point is that everyone is different. Telling people to avoid things that are not initially bothering them increases the likelihood that they start to bother them in the future. So blanket statements like avoid screens and crowds are not good advice.
@@CompleteConcussions so it's not an issue until someone suggests it is? That doesn't sound reasonable
@@Kate-lb1hm It actually is most reasonable. Telling someone to avoid something that is perfectly safe to do increases disability and the likelihood that it will become a problem for them. Light and noise sensitivity INCREASE with avoidance of these things.
I had the same thing and mind lasted for 2 years then one day just stopped but I still suffer with neck pain and can only sleep on one side or I have nightmares ..Good luck ,I guess we all respond differently .
Hit my head at work and my symptoms are mainly low energy and a little bit of light sensitivity. I’m curious what your thoughts are on weight lifting.
Exercise gets oxygen to the brain, from 1 week concussed and looking to get back to workouts
How do you feel now
Q
@@nylakhan5658 oof no response they probably died. 😢
So I have a question. I was concussed late 2017 and my symptoms are really only getting better recently (in the last few months) after starting Cranial Sacral Therapy I have seen *dramatic* improvements and I am going to try start exercising again in the next few weeks/ months. Do you recommend any specific movement or exercises? Thanks for the videos by the way really informative!
How CST help on concussions ? I don't see the link. Thx
I’ve had a series of concussion as a pro wrestler in my early 20s and I had a small one June last year so exactly one year now but I guess that was the straw that broke the camels back because it’s been a whole year and I feel I have made no progress as a matter of fact at first I could at least run and do light workouts now I literally can’t do anything I haven’t been to a gym in 10 months what should I do
Sorry to hear! Join Concussion Fix. It's probably your best bet to turn things around quickly tbh.
Excersise really helps b12 super complex, cbd oil,flaxseed oil, protien shakes,vita c, vagus nerve exercises have done me good on day 38 and im on tail end of concussion. I got no rest no cocoon at 1st and was drinking and flew from mn to az. I didn't realize i had a concussion until day 3.
9 months past. A afganistan people beat me up on the back of my head he kicked and elbow. Can my concussion heal itself? I don't have money to go doctor for any treatment
I am a wrestler going through this now wanting to get back on the mat but still have headaches it is really depressing
How about video games? Could it help to gradually introduce gaming or avoid completely during recovery?
My experience is that gaming makes it worse.
Hi, question! I got a concussion about 11 days ago and have been resting but want to start moving again. What exercise do you recommend?
There is a right way to do this...it's complicated to explain. Find a clinic that specializes in concussion rehab (CompleteConcussions.com) or you can check out our online concussion program at concussiondoc.io. It walks you through all of this!
How are you 6 months later ?
How are you feeling now and if better what did you do to get better
How are you now?
@@estebxndavid pretty sure you asked how you had one as well and are feeling some kind of way. Now is my turn to ask you, how do you feel now? Did you healed?
What kind of exercise can I do. ? I was lifting weight before the accident.
it's very gradual cardio that is the best to start - i.e., light walking first
Legit!
I firgured this out on my own against medical advice. My advice: exercise as soon as you feel you can. Use your judgment and start off easy with walking then biking. Obviously if your head is throbbing severely, back it down. Good luck people. Injuries suck but you have to want to get better and sitting on the couch rarely helps in the long run
100%
I got hit by a car and got knock out 2 days ago ambulance came and took me to hospital just got out of the hospital with a mild concussion I am scared that I can lose my memory because when I first came to the hospital I couldn’t read or make out a sentence
damn, I got hit by a car yesterday, not the best that i''ve been haha
how are you doing now?
i gotta concussion recently & my symptoms are like not hectic but just still there, do you think i can still play the game
its been 2 days... how much exercise should i be doing?
How do you feel now?
I got concussion from getting punched in the forehead
I was fine the next day and continued to exercise like normal.
I then woke up the following morning feeling absolutely terrible.
And it hasn't fully cleared after 6 weeks
Similar situation rn
@@tkdamusicman it's been 4 months now for me and still not fully recovered
@@TheOriginalPain18 I’m a year and 4 months in and I still have constant head pain
@@archington1851 I feel you bro. I'm trying to do cognitive games.
I heard one exercise from a race car driver who had a concussion.
He sits on a chair with someone standing behind him. Person on chair holds a ball and guy behind says a direction where they have to hold the ball up to e.g right or left.
It can be played the opposite way aswell, with the guy behind holding the ball and shouts a direction where the person on the chair should receive the ball from.
I’ve had a concussion for 3 months now it sucks! How are you feeling originalpain18? What are you doing to help?
VERY DANGEROUS, you can developp Persistent post-concussive syndrome if you ecercise before 3 weeks of sedentarity.
*facepalm*
@@CompleteConcussions false info
imo light exercise like jogging, biking in moderation cant do to much damage.
>Leftist
>opinion discarded.
They don’t know what they are talking about ….. rest, rest, rest is the key
Well this wasn't really very helpful at all.
What I took from this video is that you need brain stimulation to heal the brain. I would argue that you need to increase omega 3’s during your concussion phase. 6 eggs daily.
Omg. I had a brain concussion 7 years ago and avoiding exercise and listening to Richard clayderman and Mozart and symptoms never subsided.
After start living my life is when I got better.
Unfortunately a week ago I was in a car crash and I had a brain concussion again. So went to the hospital next day because I was feeling award and they recommend me to go in an oxygen chamber and for some reason after that session I feel worse and my ear is clogged.
Here I’m resting and looking ways to get better 🥲
Oxygen chambers do nothing for concussion...
9 months past. A afganistan people beat me up on the back of my head he kicked and punched . Can my concussion heal itself? I don't have money to go doctor for any treatment
