Answers:
I would give it 2-3 days before you attempt going back to school!. If you do go back and aren't sure if you will make a full day have someone available to pick you up!. Here are some coping skills to help you get through having a concussion!.

Get plenty of sleep at night and rest during the day!.
Return to normal activities gradually!. Don't take on too much too soon!.
Avoid activities that could result in a second head injury, such as contact or recreational sports, until your doctor says you're well enough to participate!.
Be sure to ask your doctor about when you can safely return to sports, drive a car, bike, or operate other equipment or machinery!. Your ability to react to stimuli may be impaired!.
Take only medications that your doctor has prescribed or approved!.
Don't drink alcohol until you have recovered fully!. Alcohol may hinder recovery and can put you at risk of further injury!.
Write down things that you find hard to remember!.
Consult with your family or close friends before making important decisions!.

Well you shouldn't be on Yahoo asking health questions, that's for sure!.

If this is even remotely true, your doctor would have told you when you could go back to a normal schedule!. If he neglected to tell you this, you need to call him, or go back for a check-up, so he can tell you how you are faring!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

go back when you're feeling better!.

a concussion can affect you for days after the accident!. take it easy and see how you feel!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
