Childhood Concussions

Kids bump their heads; it's a fact of life akin to skinned knees and stubbed toes. The problem is skinned knees heal over whereas an undiagnosed concussion can be more serious for small children.

In response to an increase in child sports concussions the Children's Hospital at Westmead in Sydney has launched an awareness campaign on the signs and symptoms of concussion and what do to in the case of a suspected concussion.
