TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) occurs when an external force, such as a blow or jolt to the head, damages the brain. This can range from mild, with temporary symptoms like headache or confusion, to severe, causing long-term cognitive, emotional, or physical impairments. TBIs result from events like falls, vehicle accidents, or sports injuries. The severity depends on the force and location of impact. Prompt medical evaluation is essential to manage symptoms and reduce the risk of lasting damage. Recovery varies, and some individuals may need rehabilitation to regain function and adapt to changes.
