Brain Injuries Can Vary Depending on the Force and Impact

Types of brain injuries can include:

  • Concussion: A blow to the head that may or may not cause a loss of consciousness. This type of trauma can damage nerves and cause swelling in the brain.
  • Subdural Hematoma/Cerebral Contusions: Bleeding /bruising of the brain from direct impact.
  • Skull Fractures: Fractures to the skull caused by direct trauma, such as car accidents or falls.
  • Diffuse axonal injury: Shaking or strong rotation of the head that is common in car accidents. This type trauma causes tearing of nerve tissues in the brain and disrupts brain functions.
  • Coup-Contrecoup Injury: A coup injury occurs under the site of impact whereas a countercoup injury occurs on the opposite side of impact.

It is important to seek medical attention immediately after an injury and to have a doctor monitor an individual for signs of a brain injury. These types of injuries can develop slowly and may not even be detected until it is too late. Early treatment is critical.
