    I was walking my dog, I felt dizzy and got confused on the path, my dog took control and walked me the rest of the way home. Thankfully he was in tune with me and sensed my state. And so clever to know the way 🏡 home.

    For those currently watching w a concussion: MCT oil, omega 3 supplements, & 2000-3000 mg of vitamin c help a ton! Also make sure to eat legumes, salmon, pumpkin seeds, nuts, & drink ur protein shakes!! Ik it can b Hard to keep an appetite but w protein shakes u get all the protein & nutrients u need. So make sure to actually eat well balanced meals but if u r too nauseas or full to eat, have a protein shake

    Treatment for concussion - good food, meditation, message, excersise, limited tv. Concussion should be good in two weeks, for some people it takes time because they get stressed and have negative thought that can also aggravate the pain. Stay relaxed and everything is gonna good.

Trust me start doing meditation, exercise and pray. INSHALLAH are gonna be good in a month time. Nutrition is also important, take protein alot, take fish oil, eat salmon, eggs, fruits, massage to your head with olive oil. Trust me you are gonna be good.

    There’s a middle ground between resting in a dark room for a month and going on walks and runs the first week of having a brain injury. It’s important to refrain from exercise that jar the brain such as aerobics, jogging etc- going for a easy walk, some stretching or gentle yoga is good. But definitely no rush or reason to engage in any exercise except gentle fluid movements such as light walking, stretching and limit screen time and reading ( not avoid altogether but limited)

After 4 hours i woke up and i have a severe pain in my head i was nauseous i vomited many times. Just be positive always and rest is important stay hydrated exercise if you feel your symptoms just rest do some inhale exhale stay away from depressing stuff watch something that can make you positive it can make you feel better. Talk with your friends and family they can help you get rid of your concussion. And don't forget to Pray ❤

I got blue light filter glasses and returned to work four hours a day during week 2. Then worked 6 hours the week after. Whenever i try overworking my migraine returns that night. I take this as a sign to take it easy the day after. This normally means im animating 2 outa 3 days but i feel like this will get better with time and i can rest properly during the semester break. I am getting thru my assignments slowly. If anything this has forced me to take my work life balance more seriously. I now stop working at 5 regardless of anything that's happening.

I dont know how practical this is but i also take ritilin for adhd and have discovered it's actually prescribed for concussions i think its what saved me from the brain fog. Its worth looking into.

    I suffered a concussion 2 years ago, still healing, and although my doctor has restricted me I had to continue with my life, the best I could, because I have children and my husband works full time. And I've tried all the natural things people are listing for 2 years and we eat very healthy always. I can say personally none of these things have helped or made any difference with how I feel/my symptoms but lead to me severely injuring myself a year later due to dizziness from my concussion. I was walking downstairs and had a severe dizzy spell and fell from the top, 20 steps. From a person that has to live their daily life with a concussion I can say do not put yourself out there too soon, DO NOT push yourself to get back to whatever your normal routine was, DO rest, DO take it extremely easy until you are healed, DO focus on things that bring about peace and helps keep you motivated during this really hard time. I did not fully follow my neurologist and neuro-psychologist instructions at first and once I did start following his instructions and restrictions I started to feel better, still have a ways to go but listening to my doctor made the biggest difference compared to myself back into my pre-concussion routine.

    SUMMARY
    1. Max 2 days off work.
    2. Time off shouldn't be inactive. Time off should be moderate rest. Screens, walking, emails etc. should NOT be avoided wholesale.
    3. Those who take more than 1-2 days off, worsen symptoms and recovery. Rationale: concussions reduce blood flow, and inactivity exacerbates low blood flow.
    4. Avoid activities with high probability of subsequent concussions: e.g. wrestling
    5. Avoid that which significantly increase symptoms e.g. activities that increase intensity of pain from 4 to 6.
    6. Use activities that either: don't increase concussion symptoms at all, or only minorly
    7. Eat clean, cut pro inflammatories: e.g. processed meats, sugars, gluten, dairy. Pro inflammatory foods can impact the brain.

Anxiety was sky high. Severe dizziness. Pounding headaches. Numbness in my face and feet. I’m still getting dizziness and headaches though not as often but I experience “brain fog” and dizziness.

    Hi, i have been suffering from what I believe is concussion for 1.5 years. I was reluctant to accept concussion as multiple MRIs came back clear. I also have a vestibular condition (90% paresis in right ear) all this arose following a very impactful bike ride down a mountain, which resembled a 15 minute bike ride down a flight of stairs!! Quick question, does hyperbaric oxygen therapy help with concussion?

    • @CompleteConcussions
      @CompleteConcussions  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately MRI doesn't show concussion - so will always be clear. Hyperbaric - So far, the bulk of the evidence says that it is NOT effective for concussion recovery (although it is heavily marketed for this purpose). There are some poor quality trials that people point to as evidence of effectiveness, however all of the good quality trials show that it is no better than placebo.

      Lightheadedness is typically related to autonomic dysfunction. Autonomic dysfunction gets worse with inactivity.

Also anti inflammatory things like tumeric, also B vitamins,, D, magnesium, omegas!!, and melatonin as necessary to re-establish sleep issue. (CBD helped me with sleep issue).
    I also am taking quercitin, C, for anti-inflammation. I also highly recommend spirulina, because it is a really super good food for the mitochondria!!! It makes me happy and smart. Peace to you !! hope this helps and please do your research.
