My daughter has a concussion from playing at the NCAA volleyball last weekend.  Her sports therapist advised her to take melatonin to help with the concussion.  Im hoping its a mild concussion but not sure how melatonin will help or affect her concussion.  I just need to know more info from a doctor.  Thank you.
Hi, Thank you for posting your query. Melatonin is a hormone released from pineal gland and helps in regulation of sleep. It is particularly helpful in sleep disorders such as jet lag, shift work sleep disorder, etc. So, if your daughter has sleep disorder, taking melatonin would help, otherwise, I am not sure whether it would be helpful or not. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
