Sport-related concussion is prevalent at all levels of play. Increased attention
from sports media and scientific and medical communities has prompted players and
physicians to explore the long-term effects of concussion and ask the questions
of when and how players should begin to mitigate their concussion risk. The
authors evaluate their risks from the perspective of epidemiology,
symptomatology, neuropsychological performance, and biomechanics. The authors
propose that there is not a set number of concussions that necessitates
retirement in athletes and, aside from a few absolute contraindications to return
to collision sport, return to play should be an individualized process.
