​

What causes concussions?

Common causes of concussions include:

• Falls—falling out of bed, slipping in the bath or shower, falling down steps, falling off ladders

• Motor vehicle-related collisions—involving cars, motorcycles, or bicycles; also, pedestrians involved in accidents

• Violence—caused by gunshot wounds, assaults, domestic violence, or child abuse

• Sports injuries—besides football, they are common in soccer, boxing, baseball, lacrosse, skateboarding, hockey, cycling, basketball, and other high-impact or extreme sports

• Explosive blasts and other combat injuries

​

What are some of the consequences of concussions?

Concussions can cause confusion, difficulty concentrating, memory problems, personality changes, moodiness, angry outbursts, balance issues, increased anxiety, and may even cause you to have suicidal thoughts.

​

Do these consequences develop immediately following a concussion?

The impacts of a concussion may develop weeks, months, or even years after a head injury has occurred. Because of this, many people don’t make the connection that their issues are related to the head injury they experienced.

​

Who gets concussions?

Over 2 million new head injuries occur in the U.S. every year, and the number of concussions is rising, especially among children. From 2010 to 2015, concussion diagnoses jumped 43% among the general population. For young people from 10 to 19 years of age, however, concussion diagnoses skyrocketed 71%.
