Signs and Symptoms of a Concussion

April 1, 2024

If you’ve recently had an injury (like a sports injury, a fall, or a car accident), and you think you’ve had a concussion as well, the video below will help you recognize the most common signs and symptoms of a concussion.

In the clinic, we use the “Clinical Profiles Screen for Concussion” to check for various symptoms (and also to check the patient’s progress throughout treatment).

The 5 main categories for concussion symptoms are as follows:

->> Anxiety/mood

->> Cognitive/fatigue

->> Migraine (headaches)

->> Ocular

->> Vestibular

There are also sub-categories that we measure as well:

->> Sleep

->> Neck

In this video, I’ll explain in more detail what the concussion symptoms in each category look and feel like.

If you’ve had a concussion and would like help making a full recovery, and you live near our physical therapy clinic in Spokane Valley, WA, we’d love to help you!
