I just suffered my first concussion before 12 days at kickboxing practice. Any advice or tips during healing phase?

Watch porn. It's stimulates your neurons

Hit your skull against te wall repeatedly until you get dizzy to create micro fractures in your skull so that it can grow back stronger and thicker

It's over, your brain is now pic related. Apply for retardbux or just rope, sorry anon
>>
Maybe don't do a sport that involves getting hit in the head
>>
>>74603702
What are you even doing? Get off your fucking phone. Lay in bed and do nothing. No TV, no books, and no phone, moron.
>>
I've been to doctor. First misdiagnosed me, second comfirmed that it's a concussion, and third was just a check up. My symptoms are getting better. Except neck pain it's still holding on
>>
>>74603702
How did this happen?
You said practice right?
If it was sparring why did this happen, did you guys go full power?
How long have you been kickboxing for?
I ask because I wanted to box but my concern was this exact thing.
If your neck still bothers you after a long time, maybe see if you have to visit a chiropractor?
>>
I am training only for 2 months...we practiced technique and my partner is a fucking retard and he hit me pretty hard...my advice is to join but be careful when choosing partner you train with. Be careful and do it lightly.
>>
Never spar with retards or people you don't know how they behave if you want to keep your brain from becoming a mush
>>
>>74603702
Pretty shit gym to get hurt like that
>>
>>74603702
Try keeping your head cool, get an ice pack, wrap it in a towel put it on the spot that hurts.
>>
>>74603935
Also moderate activity and good sleep, but don't cocoon yourself up.
>>
>>74603702
If you actually want to recover
1. No more kickboxing or any combat sports
2. Make sure you get plenty of sleep
3. Vitamin d3 and vitamin c
4. Water
5. Eat clean: load up on fruits and vegetables and lean protein
6. Slowly return to exercise. If you’re good enough to post on 4chan you should probably be taking walks. But if anything starts to feel off mentally stop immediately.

It’s not the end of the world and you can recover from this. Concussions are very common even in non contact sports. If you play any sport for long enough, you’ll eventually get one.
>>
When I return I will just work bag...don't want CTE because of fucking retards. Got so fucking paranoid thought i will get Post cocussion syndrome...Learnt lot about brain health and injurys...definitley not worth getting brain damaged...
>>
>>74603702
Eat eggs
drink green tea
start doing neck strengthening
Tell your trainer and partners that you only want to do body shot sparring until you are fully healed. DO NOT tolerate any kicks or punches in the head during this period
Start doing more evasion and defensive drills, and even ask your trainer to train you more in shit like head movement and defense to prevent this from happening again.
>>
>>74603776
lol thats like telling a zoomer to not breathe air
>>
I will wait 4 to 5 weeks from injury before i go back to my kb gym.

Took me about a year to feel 100% after my concussion. Kinda crazy how mentally "slow" you feel, like your brain can't keep working on a thought for more than a couple seconds before it gives up.
>>74604014
Do everything this guy said. The biggest thing here is not getting another concussion. I've known people that didn't take this advice - kept on hitting their head - and they just... weren't the same.
>>
Im drinking a lots of water and tea. Also loading on fruit. Taking supplement vitamins b complex, c, d , zinc. Sleeping around 8h a night, plus nap 30 min almost everyday. I can say i am much better.
>>
>>74603702
1. nac 400 mg three times a day
2. cerebrolysin protocol if you can afford it
3. rest minimize screentime, dark room quiet
4. go out with friends when you can try not to isolate or you will want to rope.

>>74603702
PIke Presses/Overhead Pressing/Back Bridge Holds to pool blood to your head so you can start healing faster.

Learn to block and dodge!

>>74603720
>>74603742
Don't do this.

>>74603769
Skill issue f4m.
>>
What is cerebrolysin protocol?
>>
>yes coach, i'll pay a membership fee to get brain damage

Idk. When I got into a car wreck a couple years ago I had my first concussion and it sucked. I was totally fine from the crash except a small scrape on my arm, but I got concussed because I didn’t have a seat belt on and my head instantly slammed into the steering wheel right when the airbag deployed which flung my head up and back into the ceiling. Truck was totaled. I got super nauseous and then I felt like I had just smoked a blunt I felt actually high like exactly like a weed high just really mellow and I had that weird visual side that weed brings too and then I fell asleep when I got home a couple hours later. I felt funny and had headaches for like 3 weeks then I felt normal again. Like I would have brain farts and seem to lose my train of thought and just get dizzy randomly. Then I woke up one day and it stopped.
I would say give it time and maybe do something mentally stimulating, prioritize your sleep, hydrate properly, and go on short walks outdoors. If you only do one, do the short walks outdoors 20 minutes increases brain activity by a lot.

Good idea, start doing Sudokus and other sorts of puzzle games as these can train the brain fast.

>>74606219
You can just say, light sparring, mitts and bags only if you are scared of concussion during sparring, you don't need to compete so you don't need to do heavy sparring, you could always also ask if its okay for you to train just with body rules so the concussion problem is straight cut out of the dilemma.
>>
>>74606281
>Sudokus and other sorts of puzzle games as these can train the brain fast.
No they can't. It's a literally bullshit meme.
>>
>>74606325
How fast can you do a Hard Sudoku puzzle then Mr. Genius? For someone with a concussion they are better as they have different aspects to it: abstract, logistics and numbers. They trigger all the necessary neurons. I don't know what other puzzle game is good for sharpening the mind.
>>
Thank you all for advices!
>>
>>74606437
> can you do this deliberately difficult meme shit? No? That means it works
Retarded. Just do math if you wanna MAKE LE BRAIN WORK
>>
Creatine seems to be promising in the case of TBI. I would take 20g ED for a week or two. Look into cerebrolysin too.

>>74607156
they also require SPATIAL AWARENESS which gets hurt by concussions unlike basic maths.
>>
>>74603702
Who the fuck goes hard on a noob. I'm guessing you "sparred" a legitimately retarded person who gets beat up in practice a lot.
>>
>>74606281
Dude if I'm sparring and concussions are in the question I'm gonna flatten my opponent.
>>
>>74608275
Sounds like you deserve the concussions then lmao.
>>
>>74608295
It's like people who catch kicks then punch the opponent in the face for real. If it was serious you wouldn't be able to catch it, I'm not a cardio boxing homo.

Am I really supposed to just hadouken people in sparring?
>>
>>74608311
Just saying don't start crying about concussions, maybe your brain is already getting to negative IQ points level of brain damage from all the "hard sparring" you are doing lmao.
>>
>>74603845
>If it was sparring why did this happen, did you guys go full power?
Full power sparring is the norm in the US and nowhere else. Meatgrinder approach, really.

>>74604144
Bullshit.
>>
I (OP) am from Croatia...nothing different than US i guess
>>
man lol cunts here will spit the dummy over a single concussion but think nothing of drinking alcohol every weekend
>>
>>74603702
Whatever you do don't do nothing
Push yourself gently in terms of mental strain - maybe read a book or do some crosswords

Try not to jolt your head too much
