Exact same thing happened to me and I decided not to snowboard again, the risk just isn't worth it to me.

Also I was wearing a helmet but I don't believe they will prevent concussions?

A good helmet should prevent or at least mitigate any concussion from a beginner type of fall. Do you ride a bike? I would worry much more about clocking my head on a curb even with a helment.
