The goal of this study is to test a wearable nerve stimulator in adolescents with persistent post-concussive symptoms. The main questions it aims to answer is whether the device will reduce clinical symptom burden, reduce cognitive deficits, and aid in the recovery of clinical symptoms. Participants will wear the device daily for six weeks and complete a series of assessments.
