Brain trauma

Brain trauma, also known as traumatic brain injury (TBI), occurs when an external force, such as a blow or jolt to the head, damages brain tissue. This injury can disrupt normal brain function, affecting cognition, mood, movement, and sensation. Severity ranges from mild (concussion) to severe, potentially causing long-term impairment or death. Brain trauma involves complex physical and biochemical changes, and recovery depends on the injury's extent and location. Prompt medical assessment and treatment are essential to minimize damage and support the best possible outcome.
