Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (MTBI)

Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (MTBI), often referred to as a concussion, occurs when the brain is jolted or impacted, usually by a bump or blow to the head. Symptoms can include headaches, confusion, dizziness, and difficulty concentrating, but they are generally temporary. MTBI is diagnosed based on medical history and symptoms rather than scans. While most people recover fully within days to weeks, some may experience lingering effects. It's important to rest and seek medical advice to ensure proper recovery and to avoid further injury.
