Host Holly Wayment and Spurs Team orthopedic surgeon Leah Brown discuss how to recognize and assess suspected concussions in youth — the early signs (headache, mental fog, nausea, photophobia), the importance of identifying mechanism, and when to seek advanced care.

It reviews practical tools like the Child SCAT-6/SCAT-6, updated management (avoid prolonged complete rest), stepwise return-to-learning before return-to-play, activity tolerance rules, red flags requiring emergency evaluation, and the need to prevent a dangerous second hit.
