Minisode 6 - Concussion Recovery: Addressing Inflammation and Mental Health for Better Outcomes
Manage episode 467046730 series 3644379
Welcome to this episode of Concussion Fix Minisodes, where we tackle your pressing questions about persistent concussion symptoms and recovery. In this episode, we address the impact of age on concussion recovery, particularly for those over 60 who may be experiencing memory problems.
This minisode question comes from the full podcast Concussion Fix Podcast - Episode 2.
Join Dr. Marshall, Melinda, and Dr. Hrkal as they discuss:
- The evidence linking concussions at an older age to increased risks of cognitive decline and dementia.
- The psychological aspects of cognitive complaints post-concussion, including the role of anxiety and depression.
- The importance of addressing underlying issues such as inflammation, mental health, and physical symptoms to improve cognitive function.
- Practical steps to take if cognitive issues persist after addressing other symptoms, including the value of neuropsychological assessments.
