Female Concussions (mTBI)

RETURN TO SPORT: Physicians, coaches, and parents need to know that the risk of further damaging a vulnerable brain after a concussion or multiple concussions is very high. A subsequent concussion could result in permanent disability and ruin a teen’s education and career prospects. The onus is on adults to make this risk clear to the teens for whom they are responsible.
