Do These Symptoms Feel Familiar?
Brain injury can be hard to recognize — especially when it's not visible on a scan or formally diagnosed. But if something feels "off" after a fall, a crash or a hit on the field… or you've just noticed small changes over time… you're not imagining it.
Physical Symptoms
Headaches or dizziness that don't go away
Memory Issues
Forgetfulness, memory lapses, or losing track of time
Mood Changes
Irritability, mood swings, or feeling more emotional than usual
Focus Problems
Trouble focusing, blurred vision, or confusion
Emotional Changes
Feeling anxious, depressed, or "not like yourself"
