In this Doctor’s In episode of The Neuro Collective Podcast, Dr. Michael & May Bagnell answer a powerful question from one of our clients:
“Can a concussion from more than 10 years ago still affect me today, even if I feel fine?”
The discussion uncovers:
- Long-term impacts of concussions and why symptoms can resurface years later
- The nervous system’s compensation and how it eventually breaks down
- The importance of baseline testing (balance, stability, eye tracking, brain mapping, EEG)
- Why eye tracking is a key marker for hidden brain injury
- How athletes (and even students) use tests like IMPACT, and why they aren’t always enough
- Real client case insights showing how subtle changes in frontal lobe and cerebellum function reveal past trauma
Whether you’re a parent of an athlete, someone who’s had a head injury years ago, or simply curious about brain health, this episode gives you clarity on how the brain heals — and when it doesn’t.
Key takeaway: A concussion is a brain injury. Even if symptoms fade, testing your brain function can protect your future health.
