A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can occur in any number of circumstances, but the extent of the harm may not be immediately apparent if a thorough medical evaluation is not conducted.
What is a Traumatic Brain Injury, and How is it different from other serious Injury Cases?
This type of head injury occurs when something hits the head with enough force to cause some degree of brain dysfunction. Effects can be short-term, long-term, permanent, or fatal. While a mild concussion may only temporarily affect brain cells, a more serious impact can cause severe bruising, bleeding, and other devastating tissue damage.
