Head Injury
A head injury refers to various types of damage affecting the brain, skull, or scalp. These injuries can range from a mild bump or bruise to a severe traumatic brain injury. Common head injuries include concussions, skull fractures, and scalp wounds. The effects and treatments vary significantly, depending on the cause and severity of the injury.
Symptoms Of Head Injuries
Nausea
Feeling queasy or sick to your stomach is a common symptom after a head injury, often signaling a disruption in the brain’s normal function.
Loss Of Consciousness
Passing out, even briefly, indicates a significant impact to the brain and could point to a more serious underlying condition such as a concussion or traumatic brain injury.
Dizziness And Confusion
A sensation of spinning or unsteadiness, accompanied by mental fog or difficulty thinking clearly, can result from brain trauma or damage to the inner ear, which affects balance.
