One in four adolescents self-reported at least one concussion in 2020, according to a new study. That’s up from about 20% in 2016.
During that same time period, youth who reported one concussion rose from roughly 14% to 18%, and those who reported at least two concussions increased from about 6% to 7%.
“Self-reported concussions could be increasing given that both children and parents have greater knowledge with respect to these injuries,” says study coauthor Philip Veliz, assistant research professor at the University of Michigan School of Nursing.
“We have seen a greater effort in the US to educate the population regarding the risks associated with head injuries and may have greater knowledge with respect to symptoms associated with these types of injuries.”
