Types Of Brain Injuries

The soft gray matter that comprises your brain controls every function in your body, making the BIANC statistics particularly alarming. In addition to TBI, damage to the brain cells can happen because of hypoxia or pressure. You can sustain a brain injury in a variety of ways, including:

  • Traumatic head injury results from a blow to the head or violent shaking and is often associated with auto accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, falls, sports injuries, workplace accidents and construction site injuries
  • Cerebral hypoxia occurs when the brain is deprived of oxygen because of carbon monoxide poisoning, choking, drowning, drug overdose, birth injury, cardiac arrest or stroke
  • Brain herniation describes conditions that put pressure on the brain inside the skull, such as brain tumor, hemorrhaging, stroke and brain inflammation

Head Injury Symptoms

The symptoms of head injury depend on the location and severity of the damage to brain tissues. Although all head injuries are considered serious, medical therapy may help improve your symptoms of mild brain damage, such as:

  • Short-term unconsciousness
  • Memory loss
  • Poor concentration
  • Dizziness
  • Lack of balance
  • Nausea
  • Blurred vision
  • Mood swings

The most severe forms of brain damage can lead to permanent disability, seizures, coma, vegetative state, minimally conscious state, locked-in syndrome or death.
