Concussion Clinic Toronto
Post-Concussion and Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Management
Post-concussion syndrome is a mild form of traumatic brain injury which is typically caused by a blow to the head or with violent shaking or movements of the head. Approximately 15% of individuals who suffer from a single concussion will experience persistent symptoms associated with their concussion. These symptoms can last for a period of months or even years, in some cases.
The symptoms and severity of the symptoms vary greatly from person to person in those who suffer from concussions. Typically, post-concussion symptoms include:
- Headaches
- Fatigue
- Irritability
- Anxiety
- Dizziness
- Vertigo
- Loss of attention and memory
- Vision difficulty and blurry vision
- Ringing in the ears
- Auditory processing difficulties
- Sound and light sensitivity
- Difficulty with speech in noise
Concussion Assessments Protocol
At AudioSense, we are one of the only clinics in Canada that has developed an assessment protocol and management therapies to help our patients who suffer from concussion and experience auditory difficulties.
Many of our patients indicate to us it can be quite difficult to function in their day to day lives following a concussion, and we understand how debilitating, frustrating and scary this must feel. The good news is, that we will customize our intervention plans to your needs and will offer them at your pace. What is more, we also developed relationships with a network of health professionals who also specialize in concussion assessments and managements for vision and balance/vertigo difficulties.
