A head injury may occur right away or develop over several hours or days. Even without a skull fracture, your brain may impact your skull leading to bruising. Your head may look fine, but problems may result from bleeding or swelling.
Heavy items have the potential to cause blunt force trauma, leading to mild, medium, or a severe brain injury. Symptoms may range from a headache, confusion, and fatigue to seizures, decreased motor function, and even coma. A medical professional should evaluate all brain injuries as soon as possible. Even a mild concussion without loss of consciousness may result in a brain injury.
