Brain Injury
When it comes to traumatic brain injuries (TBI), not all symptoms appear immediately after the incident. In fact, many individuals may feel fine following a car crash, slip and fall, or sports injury—only to begin experiencing cognitive, emotional, or physical symptoms days or even weeks later.
Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury occurs when an external force causes the brain to move inside the skull, resulting in damage to brain tissue. TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe brain trauma that causes permanent disability or even death.
