56% of people have an incomplete recovery at 6 months after

🤕The results are from a JAMA study that essentially concluded, "hmm maybe we should be doing more early concussion care." It was obviously a more articulate concussion than that, but... 🤷‍♂️😂
📈56% of participants - MORE THAN HALF - had symptoms that were interfering with their work, family, and social life at 6 MONTHS post injury.
If you follow me in any capacity, you'll hear the echo of a 21-30 day recovery. 21-30 day recovery. 21-30 day recovery. 21-30 day recovery. 21-30 day...🙉
That's because when we assess you early, and implement the appropriate, individualized, evidence-based rehab plan... your chance of a complete and timely recovery goes through the roof.💪🧠
