What Causes Headaches After A Concussion?

My 15 year old son had a concussion sept-oct of 2015 from football. He never lost consciousness but was very sensitive to light and noise and got dizzy. It took him awhile to recover. He is still getting headaches and recently started to stutter. Could this still be from the concussion? Thank you. Mike
