Could anxiety, depression, fatigue come from a sports injury?
Your teenager seems … different. Perhaps you can’t quite put your finger on it, but they’re not as focused. They’re no longer passionate about football or other activities they used to love. Their grades are slipping, or they’re not interested in hanging out with their friends. You may even wonder if they’ve developed an anxiety disorder or ADHD.
Believe it or not, the changes in your teen’s personality could be related to a very common sports injury. Post-concussion syndrome is the name given to concussion symptoms that last for more than three months. Although symptoms can come and go, some can last for many years after the injury.
