Trauma Surgeon Questions Concussion

Is it true that you can't sleep with a concussion?

I got a concussion while boxing, and my doctor told me it was minor and prescribed me medication for my nausea and headaches. But, is it true that I shouldn't go to sleep with a concussion?

That’s true we call it post concussive syndrome
No, but someone should check on you every several hours. Sleep is the best cure.
