Major Signs Of A Traumatic Brain Injury

Headaches

A traumatic brain injury does not always present with immediate symptoms, especially in mild cases. With mild traumatic brain injuries, especially an injury not involving a loss of consciousness, it's common for individuals to brush themselves off and believe they're fine. But they may experience symptoms in the following days and weeks after the injury. Headaches are particularly common. Increased light sensitivity might exacerbate a headache, and in some cases, headaches can lead to seizures. They can also worsen an individual's concentration and cause sleep disturbances. Patients experiencing these symptoms should be evaluated for a traumatic brain injury.
