The term "Post-Concussion Syndrome" (PCS) refers to a group of non-specific symptoms that occur after a concussion or Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (MTBI) and last longer than expected. Headaches, weariness, vertigo/dizziness, irritability, emotional lability or irritability, cognitive problems, sleep disturbance, anxiety, and depression are all possible symptoms. According to Silverberg and Iverson, both neurobiological and psychosocial factors influence symptoms during the early phases of recovery [1].
