Just thought I'd add a bit about the "when to return" thought. The NFL has done extensive research on concussions. I was going to post their 5 step protocol for return to play, but it is pretty much the same as what has already been posted. However, I did want to add this quote as it is hugely important... "Each player and each concussion is unique, and there is no set time-frame for return to participation. Team medical staff consider the player’s current concussive injury, as well as past exposures and medical history, family history and future risk in managing a player’s care." On another point - please tell us you are not using the helmet anymore!
