I´ve read a bit into this topic and its complicated.
Example: You have to inhibit interleukin-1b in the first 48 hours, but activate it after 48 hours and so on.
And this counts not only for one target but for a few e.g. IL-6.
Take a look in this Study. Its extensive and very interresting

Afaik, Fishoil is good for pretreatment and Tumeric/Curcumin is good for pre- and post concussion.
This one is also informative and extensive:
