RECOGNIZING SYMPTOMS OF BRAIN INJURIES

A brain injury can be defined as damage to the brain, which results in an impairment of physical functioning or cognitive abilities. A TBI is caused by external physical force.

Standard Symptoms of Brain injuries:

– Fatigue
– Headaches
– Lack of Balance/Dizziness
– Memory Loss
– Sleep Disturbances
– Poor Concentration
– Swift Mood Changes
– Nausea
– Loss of Smell
– Sensitivity to Light and Sounds

Many times, it can take time for a number of the symptoms of a brain injury to develop and be-come obvious to a person. The process is often gradual, and that is why many people don’t in-itially recognize the severity of their injury.

1) Receive professional medical care and attention
2) Track and monitor your symptoms (Note any major or minor changes)
