What happens to our body when we suffer a concussion

Ever stood on the edge of a cliff or on balcony of high rise and been queasy? Maybe even dizzy?

The simple thought of or actually witnessing painful incidents can be enough to also cause these same symptoms for some.

I was looking for some inspiration and with concussions being one of my passions, I figured I should spend more time educating on the subject.

It’s now been 18 days since I last worked. Fortunately, for 9 of those days, I was supposed to be on vacation in Florida to visit family.

Now this is a story, all about how, my life got flipped-turned upside down. And I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there. I’ll tell you how I became the prince of my big comfy couch.

Let me begin by asking, who of you has ever experienced true vertigo or bouts of dizziness so bad, that you were unable to go to school or work?

In a follow up blog to my critically acclaimed post regarding exercising during pregnancy, I move towards tackling what to expect and watch out for when returning to exercise in the post- pregnancy stage of life.

My wife is currently in her third trimester of pregnancy and I am soon to be a father (a scary thought but also exciting).

It may come as no surprise to some when I say that I love a nice beach. Part of this love is for the simple beauty in the nature surrounding. The sights and sounds of the waves crashing. The feeling of the hot sand on my feet, intermingled with quick splashes of cold water to cool them off.

You know what really grinds my gears? It happens more often than not, where I hear people talking about an injury and certain comments come out as complete rubbish, so I can’t help but step in and offer up some “FREE” professional advice.

Before you say anything, I know it’s my job as a Physio to listen to peoples complaints of pain and try to identify the issues at hand and come up with a solution to help the individual.

Nutrition is an area that many people often have a hard time getting a grasp on. For some people, it’s hard to justify spending more money on healthy food items.

My first blog provided you a brief insight into concussions and how they have affected me in the past. It also shed some light on how they were previously managed.

I remember sustaining a few (2 or 3) concussions when I was younger playing basketball. I had whacked my head on the floor once, was elbowed in the head another time, and took a knee to the head the last time.
