Traumatic Brain Injury – Causes, Symptoms, Treatment
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a brain injury from a bump or blow to the head or when an object goes through the skull and into the brain. TBIs can be mild, moderate, or severe, depending on how much damage has been done. Concussions are a mild form of TBI. They cause temporary symptoms that usually go away a few days or weeks after the initial injury. The most severe TBIs can cause permanent brain damage, coma, or death.
