Head injuries in children are one of the most common dangerous events that cause disability and death. Children who fall and have mild head injuries only cause bruises and lacerations on the head, but if severe, they can cause brain damage.

Traumatic brain injury is a condition in which the patient's skull and other structures inside the skull are damaged due to strong enough trauma, which can be caused by falls from heights, traffic accidents, household accidents, or fights, and can occur at any age.

To diagnose skull and brain injuries, doctors will order skull X-rays and brain CT scans for diagnosis. After an accident or trauma, if the patient has any of the following symptoms, they must go to the Emergency Department immediately.

Concussion is a mild brain injury that can cause mental confusion and loss of consciousness, usually after a head injury. Signs of concussion are varied and can be transient or long-lasting. Concussion causes damage and changes in neurophysiology.

People who suffer from post-accident trauma are often severely affected by traumatic brain injuries. In severe cases, there can be severe cognitive impairment. However, if the injury is mild, the victim may only experience temporary memory loss after the accident.

Traumatic brain injury is a common clinical disease that can cause many sequelae if not treated promptly. The sequelae after traumatic brain injury are very diverse, including paralysis or other brain sequelae.
