🚫 The most dangerous play? Staying in the game after a head injury. Continuing to play after a concussion increases symptom severity and recovery time. Sit out, heal up. #BrainHealth

🚨 MYTH: Helmets prevent concussions. ✅ FACT: Helmets protect against skull fractures but do little to prevent concussions. The issue lies in brain acceleration inside the skull. #ConcussionAwareness #BrainHealth

Rest is NOT the best treatment for a concussion. Early, light exercise within 24-48 hours can reduce persistent symptoms by up to 50%. 🧠 #ConcussionRecovery #SportsMedicine

Education alone isn’t enough. 🤕 Despite #concussion education programs, many athletes still hide symptoms to stay in the game. Culture change matters. #StopTheStigma

Did you know? Staying in the game after a concussion can increase symptom severity and delay recovery. Early removal and proper management are critical. #ConcussionSafety #AthleteHealth

Concussions aren’t just from head contact. ➡️ Whiplash ➡️ Body blows ➡️ Indirect forces to the brain Can all cause injury. Don’t ignore non-head contact symptoms. #ConcussionAwareness #BrainHealth

The 3 Levels of Concussion Prevention: ✅ Primary: Prevent the injury (gear, rule changes) ✅ Secondary: Early detection & removal from play ✅ Tertiary: Proper rehab & long-term care Prevention is about STRATEGY, not just equipment. #ConcussionSafety #AthleteHealth

The Concussion “Rest Myth”: Old Advice: 🛌 Rest in a dark room. New Evidence: 🚶 Light activity after 24-48 hrs speeds recovery. Science evolves. So should our care strategies. #ConcussionCare #BrainHealth

Mild Traumatic Brain Injury = Concussion. The two terms are interchangeable—but only when no structural damage is present on imaging. Concussion = Brain Injury. Period. #ConcussionAwareness #BrainInjury

C Marshall (@concussion_doc) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Can a Concussion Be Diagnosed with a Scan? ❌ Nope! No gold-standard imaging exists for concussion diagnosis. Diagnosis is clinical—based on symptoms & history, not MRI or CT scans. #ConcussionCare #SportsMedicine

The “Tough It Out” Culture is Dangerous. Playing through a concussion increases risk of: ❌ Persistent symptoms ❌ Cognitive issues ❌ Re-injury Prioritize health over heroism. #AthleteHealth #ConcussionAwareness
