WHAT IS A CONCUSSION?
A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury—or TBI—caused
by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or by a hit to the body that
causes the head and brain to move quickly back and forth. This
fast movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist in
the skull, creating chemical changes in the brain and sometimes
stretching and damaging the brain cells.
