That Bump on the Head Isn't Going Away: Could it be a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)?
Headaches after a bump are common, but what if the pain lingers? It could be a sign of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), a serious condition that requires attention.
TBI 101:
Caused by a blow or jolt to the head, TBI disrupts normal brain function.
Anyone can experience TBI, but it's common in sports injuries and car accidents.

Difficulty concentrating
Blurry vision
Dizziness
Sensitivity to light or sound
Headaches (like the one that won't go away!)
Difficulty sleeping or feeling tired all the time
Mood swings or irritability
Early Detection is Key:
The sooner a TBI is diagnosed, the better the treatment outcomes. Depending on the severity, treatment may involve:
Rest
Medication
Physical or occupational therapy
Speech therapy
In rare cases, surgery
