Is It Safe To Travel When Suffering From Concussion?

My boyfriend suffered from concussion since 7 months now. He has no seizure, no blood in the brain... He has headaches and he is tired most of the time. His doctor said he can t work stil after 7 months (he works in front of a computer all day long usually). Can he takes a 6 hours flight, in about 3 months?

Hello,

It is okay for your boyfriend to take this flight as there are no counter-indication in his medical condition. For the headaches and tiredness, I would recommend taking escitalopram to help improve his situation.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
