In this episode, we discussed how to determine whether or not concussion symptoms are caused by whiplash or concussion, and if “asymptomatic” means that an athlete is ready to return to play. We also reviewed the study of the week, which looked at the prevalence of concussion injuries caused by fighting in ice hockey.
Lastly, we were joined by The Futbol Physios to discuss a recent concussion injury that occurred during a FIFA World Cup game between Morocco and Iran, and the team’s questionable decision to allow the player to play in the next match.
