Signs of Concussion

Slurred Speech

Another possible sign of a concussion is unclear or slurred speech. This condition occurs when the blow or hit affects your brain area that is responsible for these functions. The level of intensity would depend on how bad the damage is and the exact part under effects. You can check this problem by asking the person a couple of basic questions. For instance, “What is your real name” or “Do you know where you are at?” If the answers to these questions are slurred, delayed, hard to understand, or do not make any sense, then they might suffer from a concussion.
