Types of Brain Injuries

There are two ways that brain injuries occur. There are closed and penetrating brain injuries. A description of each is provided below.

Closed Brain Injury

Closed brain injuries occur when the brain injury happens without a break in the skull. Closed brain injuries are often caused by a shaking of the brain within the skull, often with a fast back-and-forth movement. This shaking can cause tearing and bruising of the brain tissue and damage to the blood vessels.

Closed brain injuries can happen in a number of ways. Some of the more common ways are listed below:

  • Slip and fall accidents
  • Car accidents
  • Sports injuries
  • Shaken baby syndrome

Penetrating Brain Injury

Penetrating brain injuries occur when the head opens during the injury, meaning there is a break in the skull. These penetrating brain injuries can happen in a variety of ways, including the following:

  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Vehicle accidents
  • Firearms
  • Assault

Brain Injuries, Their Symptom, and Long-Term Effects

A brain injury can range from mild to deadly. Brain injuries can manifest themselves in various ways and demonstrate different long-term effects. Some of these long-term effects are listed below:

  • Amnesia
  • Anxiety
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Vision problems
  • Disorientation
  • Nausea
  • Changes in the ability to smell and taste
  • Delayed responses in conversation
  • Suffering from depression
  • Dizziness
  • Problems with concentration
  • Experiencing pressure in the head
  • Experiencing brain fog
  • Headaches
  • Overwhelmed by emotions
  • Easily distracted
  • Trouble balancing
  • Mood swings
  • Irritability
  • Chronic neck pain

While this is a long list, it is not nearly exhaustive. Brain injuries can be difficult to overcome and can sometimes be permanent. If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury, depending on the circumstances, you could be entitled to recover compensation for the damages you sustained.
