Abstract

Sport-related concussion is a major concern for young athletes because a growing number of children participate in sport-related activities. Postconcussive symptoms can lead to physical, academic, and social impairment. There is no definitive treatment for sport-related postconcussive symptoms, and most available pharmacologic therapies have potential side-effects. The aim of this report is to describe the use of acupuncture in the management of sport-related postconcussive symptoms in 3 pediatric patients.
