One thing I've been reminded of during my #concussion recovery is that every #braintrauma is as different as every person. And that means different things will help different people with #mTBI. Trust your perceptions. Do what works for you. Believe in yourself.

Perpétuo was discovered topless and had suffered severe injuries, including severe #braintrauma, a broken neck, bruising across her body and a large bite mark on her shoulder and thigh. tinyurl.com/5d6zywr3
Light sensitivity, forgetfulness, or radiating pain after a crash may signal brain or spine trauma.

#ChronicTraumaticEncephalopathy is a progressive #neurologicaldisease caused by repetitive #braintrauma, which is commonly seen in contact sports like #rugby, #MMA, #boxing, and American #football.
Matthew Nichols suffered a #braintrauma, according to his wife. tinyurl.com/bp7bbkzp
A study in Australia and New Zealand may finally collate the often contradictory recommendations for #concussion treatment and come up with a single, cogent plan for people recovering from #mtbi. Welcome news indeed! #braintrauma #NoSuchThingAsAMildConcussion community.scoop.co.nz/2025/11/new-...
Asking people to define their level of pain or impairment as if it's one thing all the time is silly. There's too much daily and even hourly fluctuation to answer that. This study of folks with chronic #mTBI supports that. #concussion #braintrauma #braininjury www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/be...
#Concussion triples risk of #depression. This study says preventive use of anti-depressants can stop it from developing. I've never heard of using SSRIs this way before, but stopping post-TBI depression would be a good thing. #braintrauma #braininjury trialsjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....
#Falls are a common cause of #concussion, but people underestimate the risk. This California case of a woman tripping over an uneven sidewalk is a cautionary tale: take fall hazards seriously. #traumaticbraininjury #mTBI #braintrauma #braininjury www.unilad.com/news/us-news...
Early warnings for prolonged #concussion recovery: Female. High BMI. History of headache, depression, anxiety. Headache or neurological deficits (eg, weakness, numbness, trouble speaking, loss of coordination). Injuries caused by falls, MVAs, assault/abuse. #braintrauma newatlas.com/brain/factor...
Major depression is common after #concussion. People who've had a #traumaticbraininjury are over 3X times as likely as others to have depression. And the risk increases as time passes, from 42% immediately to 61% within 7 years of #braintrauma. #TBI www.mindbodygreen.com/articles/hea...
This study is a bit frustrating. It basically says that headaches are a common and debilitating result of #concussion and that they need to be studied more. I could have said that. #traumaticbraininjury #braintrauma #TBI www.dovepress.com/prevalence-o...
Giving a #traumaticbraininjury ( #TBI ) symptom checklist can help in diagnosing #concussion in emergency departments. The checklist takes about about 3 minutes and may help with triage and treatment decisions to optimize recovery. #braintrauma www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
A study from the University of Victoria in Canada looks at using psychedelics to treat #concussion. Already used for certain psychiatric disorders, which can have similar underlying pathologies to #braintrauma, drugs like psilocybin can support #neuroplasticity in healing. martlet.ca/undergraduat...
This study demonstrates the effectiveness of vision therapy over "watchful waiting" in improving convergence insufficiency in #concussion patients. #braintrauma #traumaticbraininjury #tbi www.healio.com/news/optomet...
Rather than causing ALS, #concussion might be an early warning sign that it's already begun. #braintrauma #traumaticbraininjury #tbi www.yahoo.com/news/article...
Researchers have identified a “core neural network” perturbed in people with a high burden of persisting post-concussion symptoms. They pinpointed places in the cortex to target with non-invasive brain stimulation to treat such symptoms. #concussion #braintrauma bbrfoundation.org/content/pers...

I read this one a couple years back as part of my research for my memoir of #concussion: The Song of Our Scars: The Untold Story of Pain by Dr. Haider Warraich #booksky #braintrauma #braininjury #chronicpain
Recently read this book: Impact: Women Writing After Concussion, an anthology of Canadian writers edited by ED Morin and Jane Cawthorne #booksky #concussion #braintrauma #braininjury
Currently reading Sex with a Brain Injury: On Concussion and Recovery by Annie Liontas. Excellent. I highly recommend it. #booksky #concussion #braininjury #braintrauma
Over 50% of people diagnosed with #whiplash report symptoms a year+ post-injury. But many symptoms—dizziness, emotional lability, confusion, ocular movement abnormalities, and balance deficits—are more consistent with post #concussion syndrome (PCS). #braintrauma www.frontiersin.org/journals/neu...
Post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) has previously been associated with severe TBI. But new evidence suggests even mild and moderate TBIs can lead to epilepsy, sometimes months or years after the initial injury. #concussion #braintrauma #braininjury www.lexology.com/library/deta...
Use of a transcranial Doppler may help ensure the safety of discharge from Emergency after a #concussion. #braintrauma #braininjury www.researchgate.net/publication/...
The disease process in brains that sustain repeated impacts even without #concussion begins long before the buildup of tau proteins starts, shattering previous beliefs, says this new research. This is literally game changing. #braintrauma #braininjury www.livescience.com/health/years...
“Eye problems are the biggest issue in [most] patients [with] persistent symptoms after a #concussion,” is one conclusion of a study into the effectiveness of vision therapy to correct post-concussion problems such as convergence insufficiency. #braintrauma #braininjury news.njit.edu/vision-thera...
#Concussions are common in domestic violence survivors—28-100% have had at least one #braininjury. Yet, many do not receive medical help: their injuries are not "severe" enough or their circumstances are too complex. A new project will address this. #braintrauma www.newcastle.edu.au/newsroom/fea...
Over half of people with #whiplash report symptoms a year later. But many symptoms, such as dizziness, emotional lability, confusion, ocular movement abnormalities, and balance deficits, may be post #concussion syndrome (PCS). www.frontiersin.org/journals/neu... #braintrauma #braininjury
“We’ve known that white matter is vulnerable after traumatic brain injury. What’s been missing, however, is a comprehensive, long-term look at how a single juvenile #concussion affects the brain over time.” #braintrauma #braininjury www.technologynetworks.com/tn/news/a-si...
