What is the deal with sports players and concussions? Some of them act like nothing even happened while it's really effecting oodles of things in their daily lives.
I honestly don't think it's a smart idea to play sports right after you get a concussion. Your brain could be seriously damaged. Studies have shown that football players who have suffered 3 or more concussions have a tripled risk of depression, plus it could also contribute in the decision of suicide. Reality is, many players don't pay attention to symptoms of a concussion. They just shake it off and play on. 31% of athletes with concussions are driven right back onto the field after an injury.
Having a concussion could ruin many things. If you ever get or think you have a concussion, be responsible and see a doctor right away.
