The excitement is in the air as children head back to school and sports. But as parents, how prepared are we for the potential risks like concussions that come with the territory? This guide will help you understand the ins and outs of concussion management.
Initial Assessment: What to Watch For If you’re ever on the sidelines and something seems off with your child, remember the golden rule: "When in doubt, sit them out!" Watch for subtle signs like delayed verbal responses, discoordination, or emotional shifts.
Diagnosis: More Than a Bump It's not merely a bump on the head; a concussion involves a change in memory or mental status. Recognize that diagnosis can sometimes take time, especially if symptoms don't manifest immediately.
Cognitive Rest: Debunking the Myths Think cognitive rest is essential for recovery? Think again. If your child doesn’t experience symptom worsening during cognitive activities like reading, then it’s generally fine for them to continue.
Neuropsych Testing: Helpful but Limited Though valuable for concussion management, neuropsych testing doesn't predict the length of recovery and isn’t usually a factor in deciding on neuroimaging.
Long-term Risks: Unraveling the Connection Concerned about long-term risks? While there's a correlation between neurocognitive diseases and repeated concussions, the relationship is complex and likely involves various factors like genetics.
Return-to-Play: A Step-By-Step Guide To get your child safely back into sports, follow a step-wise approach. Your child should be symptom-free for at least 24 hours at each stage before progressing to the next.
Your child’s safety is our priority. Being well-informed about concussions can make all the difference. ”

The ABCs of Concussions: A Parent’s Guide for School Sports Safety “
Updated: July 24th, 2023
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sometimes referred to as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), are infections that are primarily passed from person to person during sexual contact. The most common STIs identified worldwide are gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, human papillomavirus (HPV), HIV/AIDS, and trichomoniasis, as well as emerging STIs like Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma. Grasping their symptoms, knowing the right time to test and retest for these infections, understanding treatment options, and acknowledging the importance of retesting—even after successful treatment—can greatly impact your sexual health management.

Understanding STIs: An In-Depth Look at Prevention, Risk Factors, Symptoms, and Treatment Options Symptoms of Most Common STIs
Although some STIs can show no symptoms, below are common symptoms associated with each infection:- Gonorrhea and Chlamydia: Symptoms may include unusual discharge, a burning sensation during urination, and in men, pain or swelling in one or both testicles. Women may experience pain during intercourse, lower abdominal pain, or a low-grade fever.
- Syphilis: This infection often begins as a painless sore on the genitals, rectum, or mouth. As it progresses, it can lead to rashes, fever, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue.
- Herpes: Herpes is characterized by outbreaks of blisters and sores around the mouth or genital area. The virus stays dormant in the body between outbreaks.
- HPV: Some types of HPV can lead to genital warts, while others may not cause symptoms but can lead to various cancers.
- HIV/AIDS: Early symptoms of HIV/AIDS include flu-like symptoms. As it progresses, it can lead to weight loss, fever, night sweats, and fatigue.
- Trichomoniasis: This STI can cause itching or irritation inside the penis, burning after urination or ejaculation, and some discharge from the penis in men. Women might notice itching, burning, redness or soreness of the genitals, discomfort with urination, or a thin discharge with an unusual smell that can be clear, white, yellowish, or greenish.
- Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma: Many individuals with these infections don't experience symptoms. However, when present, symptoms can include burning or pain during urination, urethritis, or more complex reproductive and urinary tract disorders.
Testing and Retesting for STIs
Determining the right time to test for an STI post-exposure depends on the specific infection. General guidelines are:- Gonorrhea and Chlamydia: Test 5 days weeks after exposure or for any symptoms.
- Syphilis: Test 1-3 weeks for primary syphilis.
- Herpes: Test 2 weeks to 3 months after exposure.
- HPV: No approved test for men; women should have regular screenings as part of Pap tests.
- HIV: Test 1-3 months after exposure.
- Trichomoniasis: Most people are diagnosed when a partner reports symptoms; testing can occur as soon as symptoms are reported.
- Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma: Testing should be considered if you have symptoms or risk factors like multiple sexual partners or unprotected sex.
Treatment Options
Treatment plans differ based on the STI:- Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Syphilis, and Trichomoniasis: These bacterial infections are typically treated with antibiotics.
- Herpes and HIV: These viral infections can't be cured, but their symptoms can be managed with antiviral medications.
- HPV: Treatment often focuses on managing symptoms and regular monitoring for potential cancer development.
- Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma: These infections are generally treated with antibiotics; however, antibiotic resistance can be an issue, particularly with Mycoplasma genitalium.

Dr Levin and the entire vitality staff have been amazing. I found them before Covid hit, and with 3 small kids at home it is such a blessing to have a doctor come to you for sore throats, pink eye, cuts, bruises, and all other things that kids get into monthly. For my wife and I, their available hours are well into the night, so after work appointments are super Convenient. Not waiting in sick rooms is great. And now, throughout covid, at home covid tests certainly beat waiting in hours-long lines like our friends and family. I can’t recommend highly enough, we should have done this years ago! Thanks Dr Levin and team!
Rod saved us a trip to the ER at 10 PM. In addition, he was knowledgeable, kind and prompt. I am so grateful for his service and will definitely use again if needed!
I was promptly seen and treated very quickly and professionally. I will definitely recommend mobile urgent care services for anyone who needs urgent care services. Thank you!
First time tried urgent care at home services. Frankly speaking, I was a bit hesitant but the medical provider was polite, knowledgeable and attentive. I was able to get all of the treatment in my place of residence without spending hours in waiting rooms. The pricing was comparable as for any visit to my primary care doctor. I would definitely recommend this service! Thank you.
