What is a Concussion?

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by a blow to the head or body, a fall, or any other event that jars or shakes the brain inside the skull. This sudden movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist, leading to chemical changes in the brain and, sometimes, damage to brain cells. Symptoms of a concussion can range from mild to severe and may last for hours, days, weeks, or even longer.

Symptoms of a Concussion

Concussion symptoms can vary between individuals, and they may not appear immediately following the injury. Here are some common symptoms to be aware of:

  • Headache or a feeling of pressure in the head
  • Temporary loss of consciousness
  • Confusion or feeling as if in a fog
  • Amnesia surrounding the traumatic event
  • Dizziness or “seeing stars”
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Slurred speech
  • Fatigue
  • Delayed response to questions
  • Appearing dazed
  • Difficulty in concentration and memory complaints
  • Irritability and other personality changes
  • Sensitivity to light and noise
  • Sleep disturbances
  • Psychological adjustment problems and depression
