Answer: Have you been diagnosed with a concussion? Have you seen a physician? If you have a concussion, in general the symptoms will go away in 6 weeks. If they continue, you are experiencing what is called Post Concussive Syndrome. My book goes into extensive detail about it.

A concussion is defined as "an immediate acceleration, deceleration, or stopping event causing temporary or permanent damage to the structures of the head." The vestibular system, and more specifically the labyrinthine structures within the inner ear, appear to be more susceptible to blunt head trauma than the skull or brain. Symptoms from both types of concussions can be similar; however, the treatment for each is significantly different.

A concussion results from a blow to the head which causes the brain to strike the skull. A concussion does not cause any structural damage to the brain, but can cause temporary loss of functioning. Headaches, memory loss and sleep disturbance may be some of the problems suffered after such an injury.

Yes. We have found that patients with both tension headaches and migraine headaches can benefit from Botox injections. We have even had success treating patients that have been resistant to other medications.

Have frequent sinus infections? Have sore teeth or jaw aches? Would you like a non-chemical way (no need to pop any more pills!) to relieve your discomfort? Dr. Alfe can provide you with an NTI-tss, the only FDA approved, custom-fitted nightguard that is designed to greatly decrease clenching and grinding. Clenching and grinding your teeth has been shown to be one of the main causes of migraine, neck and shoulder, and sinus pain.

Many factors influence the course of recovery from a concussion, including the severity of the concussion, previous history of concussion, physical injury/pain symptoms, and personal history, and so the length of recovery will differ among individuals. Most healthy athletes, however, will see significant improvement within 7 to 30 days following their concussion.

By far, most people get tension-type headaches and get them frequently. They typically suffer mild to moderate pain, on both sides of the head, that is often described as tight, stiff, constricting ? like having something wrapped around your head and pressing tightly.

Chiropractors have had considerable success relieving the cause of headache pain and releasing headache sufferers from the dangerous vicious circle of taking ever-larger doses of ever-stronger painkillers that may even be causing new and worse headaches. Many people experience what are termed "analgesic rebound headaches" from taking painkillers every day, or nearly every day. The medicine you take to get rid of today's headache may give you a headache tomorrow and the days after...

Many millions of adults, worldwide, get headaches regularly. Headaches are among the most common physical complaints prompting people to treat themselves or get professional assistance. One estimate holds that some 50 million people in the U.S. get severe, long-lasting, recurring headaches. Most headaches are not signs of serious underlying conditions, but they can be very distracting, debilitating and account for significant amounts of time lost from work.

Simply defined, a headache is a pain in the head due to some cause. Headaches may result from any number of factors, including tension; muscle contraction; vascular problems; withdrawal from certain medications; abscesses; or injury. Headaches fall into three main categories: tension-type, migraine and cervicogenic. Tension-type headaches are the most frequent. Patients who endure tension-type headaches usually feel mild to moderate pain on both sides of the head.

I enjoy questions but I don't have enough time to answer most of them. I wrote the man page (and FAQ and book and papers ...) to avoid having to repeat what turned out to be the same answers again and again. If you have a question that is not already in the book or the FAQ or man page, send it. However, you are likely to get more rapid responses by posting such questions to the comp.lang.tcl newsgroup. Sometimes I have to explicitly ignore email in order to get my real work done.
