Ask Concussion Doc | Complete Concussion Management

Dr. Cameron Marshall, DC, answers questions submitted by people impacted by concussions. This week, we discussed whether or not it's okay to ride rollercoasters or travel on airplanes following a concussion; ways that people working in the corporate world are impacted by screens and constant brain stimulation; and exercise therapy as concussion treatment.

Dr. Cameron Marshall, DC, is joined by APA Sports Titled Physiotherapist, Aerin DiLeva. During the episode, Dr. Marshall and Aerin discuss validity indicators for computerized neurocognitive testing; manual therapy techniques for symptoms of concussion and whiplash; and the role of physical therapy in multidisciplinary, collaborative concussion care.

Welcome to Ask Concussion Doc. This week, we'll discuss:

1) Can you explain neuro-fatigue? And, what exactly is happening in the brain when things get confusing or slowed way down in the brain?

2) I saw that CCMI has a 10-day return to learn/work/play protocol. Right now, we use a 5-day return to sport protocol, but that's obviously only for our athletes. We have to abide by the MDs orders regardless, but after that we implement the protocol accordingly. Do you feel like a 5-day protocol is adequate for our situation considering we cannot make educational accommodations for patients?

3) I have 2 elderly patients that all have dizziness and fatigue as their main symptom. Due to this population being super rigid into extension, how can I test for BPPV?
