How Long Does The Brain Take To Heal From Concussion?

We discuss the typical healing trajectory for the brain following concussion. Although the metabolic impairment is relatively short-lived, concussion symptoms can persist beyond this initial physiologic recovery.

Brain recovery following concussion is usually a pretty quick process, however, there is often confusion about this because of lingering symptoms related to other issues.

But if I didn't have the symptoms before and I am still dealing with them post concussion (Its been a year) does that still mean my brain is healing or has the brain injury affected others things but the brain is ok. Thanks, I really enjoy your videos

Hello, i ran i this video because i just discovered that my tinnitus came because of in a fight that i got in which i got many blows to my head because i couln't protect myself because it was 2 vs 1 but anyway i had a head injury and i got tinnitus ( very loud from both of the ears at first) but now I can manage it but I very often lost my balance ( it was at the beginning and after 3 month) and a lot of noose bleeding and today after 5 months my tinnitus is much much better because before it was so fucking bad like having an allarm in your head but now is better and my balance has come to place and i had some headaches for 3 days straight and i was just wondering if I can recover from my tinnitus which came from a concussion, please i need to know more about it!
