If a concussion is suspected, it’s essential to take the situation seriously and seek medical attention promptly. Halt all physical activities immediately to prevent further injury. Look for symptoms such as confusion, headache, dizziness, nausea, sensitivity to light or noise, and memory difficulties. Monitor the person closely, as symptoms can sometimes worsen or develop hours later. Avoid giving medications like aspirin, which may increase the risk of bleeding. Physical and cognitive rest is crucial, so limit activities such as screen time and reading. If symptoms like worsening headache, repeated vomiting, drowsiness, or seizures occur, seek emergency medical care without delay. Always follow the guidance of a healthcare professional for evaluation and recovery.
