What Is a Concussion?

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury that has caused the brain to move back and forth rapidly. This sudden movement causes the brain to twist or shake in the skull, triggering many chemical reactions in the brain and in the process, might even damage some brain cells.

It is common for some medical providers to treat a concussion as “mild” brain injury. It is particularly important to take a concussion seriously and seek urgent medical help right away. The effects of a concussion can be serious and long term.
