When your teen's concussion doesn't go away - Free guide

Close to 300,000 high school football players sustain a concussion every year. Most of the time, symptoms disappear after a few weeks and players can return to the game they love. But for some athletes, a seemingly minor concussion can develop into long-term problems – a condition called post-concussion syndrome.

PCS is defined as concussion symptoms that linger for more than three months. PCS can cause issues with memory, attention, sleep, fatigue, vision, dizziness, headaches, brain fog and even depression and anxiety. Just one concussion can have dramatic long-term consequences for a young person.
