Is it save to go on amusement park rides after a concussion?

Postby sardonyx rain » Mon May 26, 2014 8:38 am

Three weeks ago, i got a concussion whit playing soccer at school. I got hit in the face with the ball, and hit my head again while falling on the ground. I didn't black out, and when i went to the hospital and got a cat scan, i didn't have and bleeding or anything wrong with my brain.
This Thursday we are going on a class trip to an amusement park, and i was wondering if it is safe to go although I've recently had a concussion?

I'd say call the doctor. It shouldn't (it might but it shouldn't) cost anything to ask, and that's a lot safer than asking the general population of CS. Have fun on your trip! c:

Your doctor should have told you about any restrictions. I would still call to make sure.
If I were you I would avoid anything that might give you whiplash. Even if it doesn't cause any real damage it's probably going to hurt!

VOILA! IN VIEW A HUMBLE VAUDEVILLIAN VETERAN CAST VICARIOUSLY AS BOTH VICTIM AND VILLAIN BY THE VICISSITUDES OF FATE. THIS VISAGE, NO MERE VENEER OF VANITY, IS A VESTIGE OF THE VOC POPULI, NOW VACANT, VANISHED. HOWEVER THIS VALOROUS VISITATION OF A BYGONE VEXATION STANDS VIVIFIED AND HAS VOWED TO VANQUISH THESE VENAL AND VIRULENT VERMIN VANGAURDING VICE AND VOUCHSAFING THE VIOLENTLY VICIOUS AND VORACIOUS VIOLATION OF VOLITION! THE ONLY VERDICT IS VENGEANCE; A VENDETTA HELD AS A VOTIVE, NOT IN VAIN, FOR THE VALUE AND VERACITY OF SUCH SHALL ONE DAY VINDICATE THE VIGILANT AND VIRTUOUS. - v, v for vendetta

Please don't ask for medical advice on the internet. It's not safe. You could get very bad advice and get hurt as a result.
