A mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is an injury to the brain caused by external forces. Common examples that cause an mTBI are motor vehicle accidents (with or without a direct blow to the head), sports related injuries, falls or explosive blasts. Patients may or may not suffer a loss of consciousness for an mTBI to occur.
Keep in mind: Brain injuries may also occur without a direct blow to the head. This is known as a “coup contrecoup injury.” As in the case of a motor vehicle accident, the head can rapidly accelerate and decelerate while twisting and rotational forces can stretch and sever long-range connecting fibers in the brain. Damage to these fibers can disrupt communication between nerve cells and reduce the efficiency of brain function. These brain changes can be difficult to “see” with radiographs, CT or an MRI scan and be equally as difficult to find during a medical exam.

Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries can be treated using a variety of techniques. While limiting physical and cognitive activities as much as possible can help treat many brain injuries, sometimes more serious interventions are necessary. Based on your diagnosis, one of our mild traumatic brain injury doctors may recommend medication to help re-stabilize your brain. Moreover, surgery and rehabilitation may also be recommended depending on the severity of your injury.
