Every year, we learn more and more about the devastating consequences of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), concussions, and other serious head injuries. They can be caused by auto accidents, falls, contact sports, faulty protective equipment, and many other types of accidents, and are playing an increasing role in causing disability among victims in these accidents.

Severe head trauma can cause a wide range of injuries and debilitations which may require long-term medical care. These include:

– Traumatic brain injury (TBI) – Concussions – Contusions – Closed-head injuries, also known as “coup-contrecoup” – Neurological damage – Temporary or permanent cognitive or psychological disabilities – Whiplash

The symptoms of serious head injuries are often obvious; some victims may have lost the ability to move particular parts of the body, while others suffer mental impairments and are no longer able to perform simple tasks without assistance. Unfortunately, some are permanently incapacitated and require life-long care, and many of these individuals suffered one or multiple traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).

TBIs may also be less obvious and even without apparent symptoms. Their effects on an individual’s personality and behavior (due to damage to the brain) may be gradual, such as confusion, impulsiveness, irritability, and other changes which, without physical symptoms to accompany them, may result in a brain injury being left undiagnosed.
