In this episode of the Young & Healthy podcast… 

Dr. Kate Berz and Dr. Paul Gubanich, sports medicine specialists and concussion experts, sit down with host, Kate Setter, to answer the questions that so many parents have about concussions and kids playing contact collision sports. Concussion symptoms in a young athlete should never be ignored. We cover the role coaches play in identifying injuries, when a young athlete should see a doctor, the importance of rest after a concussion, helmets, and the important question of whether contact collision sports are worth the risk. If you have a young athlete – especially one who plays soccer, lacrosse, or football – this is one you don’t want to miss!
