Concussion Rehabilitation
How does physiotherapy help in overcoming the symptoms?
A Physiotherapy can evaluate your symptoms and provide personally catered rehabilitation therapy to achieve the highest possible recovery. The rehabilitation involves:
Reduced muscle strength and endurance is quite obvious after a concussion. Physiotherapist identifies the weaker, less functional muscles and strengthens them using various exercises depending on the extent of injury and clinical presentation.
Balance impairment is a debilitating symptom of concussion. Physiotherapy can train you to regain your balance by improving your sense of space and position.
In addition to a customized physiotherapy and exercise plan, physiotherapy can also provide education to the patient, family, friends and caregivers on the Dos and Don’ts for a sustainable recovery of the patient.
As the symptoms reduce, a physiotherapy will incorporate normal activities in your protocol. A PT will also help you understand how to avoid activities that put stress on your nervous system and prevent recurrence of symptoms. For an athlete, a structured rehabilitation will help him get back to his sport, by including a careful strengthening and conditioning regime.
How long do these symptoms last?
The symptoms may last from a few hours to a few months. If they last for more than 3 months, it is termed as Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS).
