Concussions
What is a Concussion?
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or by a hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. Rapid movement causes brain tissue to change shape, which can stretch and damage brain cells. This damage also causes chemical and metabolic changes within the brain cells, making it more difficult for cells to function and communicate. Since the brain is the body’s control center, a concussion may result in a number of mental and/or physical problems.
Head injuries that cause Concussions
- Did you hit your head in a car accident?
- Did you fall and hit your head?
- Did you hit your head playing sports?
- Did your child fall off a bike and hit their head?
- Did your child hit there head at the playground?
Other ways a Concussions may happen
You don’t have to hit your head to get a Concussion. For example, whiplash in a car accident or a jolt to the body may cause a Concussion without hitting your head.
