Following sport-related concussion, the priorities for student athletes are
return to school and extracurricular activities. Consensus-based practice
recommendations emphasize rest and gradual resumption of activities. Specific
evidence-based recommendations are not available. This article provides
recommendations, strategies, and a general approach to the recovery process. Most
youth recover clinically and return to their normal activities within the first
month following injury. It is best to avoid prolonged time off from school and
restrictions on social and recreational activities because these might result in
adverse consequences, such as life stress, depression, and falling behind in
school.
