A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) that occurs when the brain experiences a sudden jolt or blow to the head or body. It can result from various causes, such as a fall, sports-related injury, motor vehicle accident, or physical assault. The impact or sudden movement causes the brain to bounce or twist inside the skull, leading to chemical changes and temporary functional disturbances in brain cells. These changes can affect the normal functioning of the brain and result in a wide range of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms. Symptoms of a concussion can vary from person to person and may include: Physical symptoms: Headache, dizziness, nausea or vomiting, blurred vision, sensitivity to light or noise, fatigue, difficulty sleeping, and balance problems. Cognitive symptoms: Confusion, difficulty concentrating or remembering, slowed thinking, feeling mentally foggy or groggy.
