Is Flying Safe With History Of Having Concussion Of Brain?

Hello, my name is Pavla.
I had concussion of brain last week on Tuesday. I don´t have headache, only feel dizzy sometimes. I went to hospital yesterday for check up and everything is fine. So wanted to ask if it´s safe to fly on Sunday or it there is some risk?
Thank you

Hi Pavla,

Thank you for trusting HCM.
Since the hospital said everything is fine, then i think its safe to fly. Just be careful while your going up the plan or on stairs in general in case you felt dizzy, Have a safe flight.
Best regards,
Dr. Nazzal
