You know, a teenager concussion isn’t difficult to diagnose. As a parent, a teacher or a sport coach or any kind of adult mentor that a child has, you are the outside authority of your child.
Why does that seem so hard to accept these days?
Look, you see your kid day-in, day-out, right? So watch today’s video to get the facts, nothing but the facts, ma’am!
In this video here’s what you’ll learn about diagnosing a teenager concussion yourself:
- Why cognitive benchmarks are useless
- Why using MRIs and X-rays are useless
- What you should be looking for
- Why common (good) sense is your best diagnostic tool.
So far, MDs and so-called brain experts have missed the point. They are panicked themselves because they know they can’t help someone with a concussion. Perhaps you’ve noticed that most of the emphasis in concussion research is on diagnosing it. They want you to line up to do cognitive testing for benchmarking. I’ve been in some of these tests and really, I think they have such limited value, especially the ones that test your short term memory. I tell you why in the video.
They really stretch the truth about finding microscopic lines and lesions in the brain after a concussion.
Teenager concussion is not hard to diagnose if you know what to look for. And you’ll get what I’m saying immediately! I want kids to play. I want parents to feel safe for their kids’ sake and for their own peace-of-mind.
Watch next week’s Facebook Live at the same time Thursdays at 3:30 PM MST/5:30 PM EST. See you then and be AWESOME! In the meantime, watch the video, write down any comments and questions and share with your friends. Lets spread the news that something CAN be done about concussions! We cannot afford to wait for MDs to catch up! I have to become the advocate the activist doctor because no one else is ready to step in.
