Hockey Concussion Symptoms & Treatments

Featuring Dr. Larissa Roux, MD, MPH, PhD, CCFP, Dip Sport Med

Duration: 1 minute

A concussion is essentially a head injury that results in neurologic impairment, and in hockey, this is generally the result of trauma: a forceful blow to the head or a jarring event.

Concussions are always serious, no matter how mild or severe they seem at the time. All concussions must be seen immediately by a medical team. With respect to concussion treatment, the number one thing that a player must do is not return to play if they've suffered a concussion. The helmet must be removed and the patient or the player must rest and achieve full recovery before going back out there.

It is a progressive, step wise solution to the problem. At each step of the way there should be no signs and concussion symptoms incurred.

If you have questions about eversion ankle sprains contact a local sports medicine physician.
