I’ve (F22) had three hits to the back of the head in the past three years (about one per year) and I’m not sure if all of them are concussions. The second hit a doctor diagnosed me with a mild concussion but I was able to still do all of their mental tests. I didn’t lose consciousness, no sensitivity or nausea, no memory loss, and only mild headache/dizziness that went away after a few days.

All three were from falling backwards while figure skating, and my butt and back hit the ice before my head did.

How dangerous is it to sustain more of these injuries? I’m very worried about long term damage since my degree and field require me to use my brain quite a lot.

Thanks!
