What is traumatic brain injury could I have TBI from a TX bike crash?
A: Clear Lake injury lawyers respond that traumatic brain injury (TBI) can result from many types of causes. A vehicle collision impact like a motorcycle crash, sports injury, serious fall, infectious disease, seizure, stroke, aneurysm, tumor, or drowning could all cause a tbi and its symptoms.
A tbi results when a sudden physical assault of some type causes damage to the brain. The damage can be highly focal (as from a gunshot wound or collision impact) or diffuse (as from a stroke event). The tbi might involve a closed head injury or a penetrating injury of the skull.
Tbi severity can be measured according the Glasgow Coma Scale. Tbi might range from a very mild concussion with minimal or no periods of unconsciousness to coma or death. Symptoms of a tbi might include:
1. Headache,
2. Nausea,
3. Disorientation,
4. Seizures,
5. Sudden speech disorders,
6. Cognitive or memory issues,
7. Emotional or personality changes,
8. Depression, and/or
9. Behavioral problems.
