📖What is Traumatic Brain Injury?
Traumatic brain injury is damage to the brain resulting from an external force, such as a blow, jolt, or penetrating injury to the head, ranging in severity from a mild concussion to severe, life-threatening brain damage. It disrupts normal brain function and can cause immediate effects as well as longer-term physical, cognitive, and emotional consequences depending on the severity and location of the injury. Common causes include falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports injuries, and assaults. Severe traumatic brain injury can lead to bleeding, swelling, and increased pressure within the skull that requires urgent neurosurgical management.
