A traumatic brain injury, or TBI occurs when the head or body sustains a violent blow or jolt. Traumatic brain injuries can also occur after any object goes through brain tissue, such as a shattered piece of skull or a bullet. Mild traumatic brain injuries can have short term affects as the brain cells are temporarily damaged. However, if you sustain a more-serious TBI, you may have bleeding, torn tissues, bruising, or other life-threatening damages to the brain. These complications are long-term and sometimes result in death. Traumatic brain injuries can happen from a vehicle-related collision, a sports injury, a fall, any combat injury such as an explosive blast, or violence whether assault or domestic. Babies who have been shaken violently suffer from the traumatic brain injury known as shaken baby syndrome.
There are several different ways that the brain can be affected after a traumatic brain injury including a vegetative state, a minimally conscious state, brain death, or a coma. You may also begin to experience seizures, vertigo, headaches, infections, fluid buildup in the brain, and blood vessel damage which could lead to a stroke or blood clots.
These are just a few of the side effects and symptoms of traumatic brain injuries. To prevent such dangerous injuries from happening to you, make sure that you always wear a helmet while riding a bike, skateboarding, snowboarding, or riding a motorcycle. You must always pay attention to your surroundings when crossing the street, driving, or walking through a trail. Do not drink and drive or drink and use heavy machinery, this goes for drugs as well, prescribed or not. Always wear your seatbelt in your vehicle, and children should always be in the back of the vehicle in their appropriate car seat for their size and weight.
