Episode description

What's a concussion, really, and do you really have to sit in a dark room without your cell phone? How many are too many? How long should it really take to recover? 

We offer plain talk and practical information to help listeners understand what exactly a concussion is (and isn't!), what kinds of things matter during recovery, and more. We talk about progress vs. perfection and separate fact vs. fiction on a subject that is near and dear to all of us as sports neuropsychologists and parents of athletes.  You might even learn a little Yiddush too.
