Concussion is the most common type of traumatic brain injury. The word originates from the Latin word, “concutere”, which means to shake violently. Concussion injuries can range from mild to severe and in professional sports you often hear of a player being removed from the field because of a concussion.

This type of head injury can be permanent or temporary. Sometimes, with the right therapy and treatment, patients can regain all or almost all of their cognitive functions. The brain is a very delicate organ that controls all the various functions of the body. It is the center of the nervous system and when it is injured, can have a number of unusual symptoms.

Since the brain generates patterns of muscle activity, you may not be able to walk or move correctly. The brain also controls speech so your speech may be slurred. In fact, all the senses can be affected including vision, hearing, taste, smell and touch.

How Does Brain Damage Occur?

Brain damage can occur any number of ways but ultimately is caused by some accident or event that results in a violent blow to the head. Those involved in motorcycle accidents often receive brain damage even if wearing a helmet. Serious car accidents can also cause this type of injury. Falling from several stories high is another cause and this might happen on the job. Those involved in some types of professions are more likely to get a concussion.

Boxers, football players, rugby players and a few other sports commonly generate the type of extreme physical activity that can cause a concussion. Some jobs like construction, roofing, and others might also expose workers to danger. Sometimes victims will go into a coma or some other altered state of consciousness. This can be temporary or permanent but in many cases the brain will begin to heal itself with the right treatments and therapy.
