What Is a Concussion?

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury that occurs when the brain is shaken inside the skull, which can be caused by a blow to the head or a sudden jolt or impact. This can affect your brain function, leading to headaches, difficulty thinking, memory problems, attention deficits, mood swings, and other symptoms.

At Legacy ER & Urgent Care, we believe in a comprehensive approach to concussion care. The primary treatment for concussions is rest — both physical and mental. It's crucial to avoid activities that may worsen symptoms. Our team of experienced medical professionals will guide you through the recovery process, ensuring you get the rest and care you need to heal.

It is important to note that when it comes to concussions, prevention is always better than cure. Wearing appropriate protective gear during sports and recreational activities, following safety guidelines, and avoiding risky behaviors can all help in preventing concussions. Our team is also available to provide advice on the best practices for preventing such injuries during sports or other physical activity.
