Parents of children involved in athletics are advised to educate themselves and their children about head injury and concussion before the season begins. It’s important to remember that concussions can occur without loss of consciousness. In fact, most people who get a concussion never lose consciousness. Because signs and symptoms can be subtle, many people may have suffered a concussion and never realized it.
With the arrival of Spring come the thoughts of outdoor activities, leaving behind the cold, dark days of winter and having some fun in the sun. Whether participating in structured sports like baseball, softball or soccer or just having fun in the neighborhood playground, preparation and encouragement for a child’s physical and emotional well-being is key.
