Q. What causes a brain injury?

admin — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 03:55:13 +0000

A. Traumatic brain injuries occur when the brain is bruised or shaken by an abrupt impact to the head or violent movement of the head. If the injury is severe enough, a person will black out. Depending on how badly the blood vessels and nerves are stretched and/or torn, injury can be mild or very severe. Acquired brain injuries (ABI) occur without direct trauma to the brain, but rather by lack of oxygen, poisoning (such as lead) or electrocution. Severe loss of blood can also cause ABI. Patients can also suffer from post concussion syndromes after a brain injury. The constellation of symptoms may include head aches, light sensitivity, noise sensitivity, vertigo, dizziness, executive function problems, loss of memory or reduction in attention, concentration, difficulty speaking, walking, or other motor and sensory dysfunction, and/or other conditions.
