Concussion Sign #8: Light Sensitivity

In these cases, one can be relatively certain that they have developed a concussion. The light sensitivity can last for several hours, days, or weeks, depending on the severity of the concussion. Wearing sunglasses can certainly be helpful, but this is a sign that you will want to get checked out by a medical professional.
