How to get a concussed person back up to speed quick?

+0
−0

The character is badly concussed, unable to stand straight, with nausea, but worst of all, unable to think straight - and he has a critical knowledge / mental skill, urgently needed at the moment. He is in prison (with prison crew and inmates fully cooperating), and getting him to full (or at least reasonable) mental capacity as soon as possible.

The character is barely conscious, unable to stand independently, can't form coherent sentences (aphasia?), and some minor hidden hemorrhaging. Preferably, the solution is near instantaneous, but up to a week of time would still be reasonable if faster ones don't exist. The solution CAN be harmful in the long-term, even lethal - matter of health or life of this one person against the fate of the whole planet.

The inmates probably have some illegal drugs; what kinds would help the recovery? What would the long-term consequences of this "treatment" be?
