It’s estimated that children get between 1.1 million and 1.9 million sports- and recreation-related concussions each year -- but experts still struggle with not only how to treat them, but how to diagnose them.

. Injuries from contact sports accounted for nearly half of those visits. And football, bicycling, basketball, playground activities, and soccer were the leading causes of the most ER visits.

That’s not only because their brains are still developing, but also because coaching and management policies in youth sports may be less consistent than they are at the collegiate and professional levels.

There are stiff penalties, too, for hitting another player in ways likely to produce head injuries.
