We are pleased to say that we were able to play a role in improving the safety of children playing the sport soccer in the US. Soccer players have two ways to hit a ball forward: use your legs or your head. Concussions in sports have increased dramatically in recent years, due to a wide amount of reported cases -- including many examples of brain injuries – mostly involving football players. Last year, British parliamentarian Chris Bryant published a report titled "Concussions Can Kill" and called for children to not be allowed to use headers while playing. While preferring that children should use softer balls rather than to have them stop learning altogether how to head correctly, Headley acknowledges that he finds research on the damage

This evidence based practice article explores the persistent concussive symptoms (symptoms lasting more than 90 days post-injury) in students from middle school, high school, and college that obtain many sport-related concussions. The studies by Harmon et al (2013) and Doolan, Day, Maerlender, Goforth & Brolinson (2012), found that just in the United states alone, there are over a million concussions every year and there are at least 50% of the concussions that are not reported. One that acquires a concussion will go through neurocognitive testing, see a physician, and go through screenings and more. Although these methods for management are being done to treat a concussion, there is not any evidence based practice to say that those methods are actually working. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore multiple treatment options, clinical rationale, and outcomes for each treatment. There were 24 cases a clients that were referred the Clinic at the University of Oregon for persistent concussive symptoms related to a sports injury. There were 14 women and 10
Grade 2 injuries result in symptoms of moderate to severe pain with severe difficulty in walking. The athlete is unlikely to be able to play on and will often limp heavily. Minor bruising and swelling may present immediately but can take several hours (up to 48) to develop. The ankle will feel very stiff but may also feel unstable resulting from a number of torn ligament fibers (this can be tested more accurately by a professional therapist). Recovery time for a moderate ankle sprain (grade 2) takes between 4 and 8 weeks.

When Post Traumatic Stress Disorder first hits, veterans deal with numerous side effects, such as anger, anxiety, fatigue or depression. PTSD has always been an extremely complex topic to comprehend. The injuries faced by these victims do not reflect those of someone who had been shot or, hit by a blast, but it is something that nobody can see. It is what the Lone Survivor foundation calls an “Invisible Injury” (Education:LSF). Although it can look as if one with PTSD is normal, their minds are not. Although some may think PTSD is not a large-scale problem for veterans, “Researchers estimate that between 7% and 20% of veterans of the recent wars have suffered PTSD at some point” (Zarembo). Even though 7% or 20% is only a fraction of the overall

Insidious injuries are when the links between their causes and manifest symptoms are obscure. (Calhoun et. al, 2017,162) This indicates that these injuries are described as general diseases as opposed to traumatic injury that has occurred. With this in mind it makes these types of injuries hard to define and to understand due to the fact they display as diseases. Insidious injuries have specific characteristics such as they appear only after a period of time, there are patterns to a group that are exposed or randomly depending on the individual’s level of vulnerabilities. Then it manifests by raising the rates of risk for diseases that may also have other causes and affects victims that are widely dispersed through the populations.
