How Long Will My Concussion Last?

Question by Freddy: How long will my concussion last? Hi I’m 15 and I got a concussion yesterday. I was playing football yesterday and I was returning the football and I got hit on the back of my head. I still remember everything and I wasn’t unconscious. I feel dizzy, but not to the point where I can’t concentrate. I was viewed by one of the trainers at my school and he said it looks like you have a mild concussion, because he tested me and I was able to walk. I didn’t feel any pain when I got hit but I have headaches now and severe ones every now and then. I went to bed taking Advil after the game and slept over 14 hours. I’m going to a doctor later today and I was wondering if anyone would know how bad is my concussion is. How long will it take me to have full ability again and able to play football?
