Traumatic
brain injury is sudden physical damage to
the brain. The head forcefully hitting an
object, a closed head injury, may cause
the damage or by something passing through
the skull and piercing the brain, like a
gunshot wound, penetrating head injury.
The major cause of traumatic brain injury
is from motor vehicle accidents. Other causes
include falls, sports injuries, violent
crimes, and child abuse.
Physical, behavioral, or
mental changes are dependent upon which
areas of the brain are injured. Most often
focal brain damage is done, which is damage
confined to just a small area of the brain.
This point is usually where the head has
hit an object. Closed head injuries often
times causes scattered brain injuries or
damage to other areas of the brain. Diffuse
damage is the result of an impact causing
the brain to move back and forth against
the skull. Frontal and temporal lobes, responsible
for speech and language, are often the most
affected because they sit in the areas of
the skull that allows more room for the
brain to shift and sustain injury. Speech
and language is therefore affected, as well
as voice, swallowing, walking, balancing,
and coordination difficulties and changes
in the ability to smell and in memory and
cognitive skills.
