Head injuries, specifically concussions, are probably the worst possible injuries suffered in sports because of the lingering as well as long term effects. In football specifically, many retired players are now suing the NFL over head injuries suffered back in the 80s and 90s when concussion protocol was taken much less seriously. These retired players nowadays may have long term bruising or swelling of the brain. One concussion will not cause these long term effects but multiple ones will. Head injuries should be taken very seriously and treated appropriately.
