What is a concussion or mild traumatic brain injury?
Concussions are also called mild traumatic brain injuries.
Concussions can occur following a hard blow or jolt to the head.
Concussions can occur with or without loss of consciousness.
Feeling dazed or confused or being unable to remember events around the time of the injury (amnesia) is common.
Most people with mild injuries to the brain have a good recovery.
Proper management of concussions can help speed recovery.
All concussions should be taken seriously.
