Can I Travel With Post Concussion Syndrome?
I suffered a concussion after an MVA on 10/9/12 and have been diagnosed with post concussion syndrome. I am supposed to fly (OHIO to CA.) on 11/20/12, and was wondering if I should take any precautions. I still experience headaches (Mild-moderate)and heavy pressure in my head with strenuous activities. Thank You

2012? You are 5 years beyond those dates. PCS is said to generally resolve over a period of several weeks to several months. In rare instances patients can suffer from some symptoms up to a year and in extremely rare instances up to several years. You are MORE than cleared to travel in the year 2017 if your injury was in 2012. Please rate this as a 5 STAR ENCOUNTER and write me at: www.bit.ly/drdariushsaghafi with more questions.
