Tochinofuji 307 Posted December 5, 2022 9 hours ago, RabidJohn said: It says in the Jungyo thread that Takayasu is kyujo with a whiplash injury to his neck, so I'm starting to think it was a rotational brain injury rather than a concussion. Similar to a boxer getting KOed with a blow to the chin that snaps his head to the side. It's not the impact: it's the sudden twisting that does the damage. Though a rotational brain injury is still a form of concussion is it not? A boxer being KO'd with a hook rather than a straight is still concussed. Sounds like a terrible combination of concussion and what in amateur wrestling is called a stinger - a nerve injury causing pain, burning, and weakness down the neck and arm caused by the nerve being pinched when the head is twisted or pushed sideways with force.

Two sides of the same coin, definitely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
