Concussion can happen in many different situations.
Concussion can happen in:
- A tackle
- A collision
- An object hitting the head
- A fall
- An impact with a playing surface, eg. a football field
The impact does not have to be direct to the head and can still lead to a concussion. Indirect injuries are much more subtle, and are more difficult to identify.
