What is a Traumatic Brain Injury?

Attorney Sandy Waterman

--rapidly causing a Coup contrecoup injury where the brain slashes around so to speak back and forth and is injured by the boney protrusions inside the skull.  Brain injuries typically are considered in classifications of mild, moderate and severe.  Severe often, if not mostly, involves a penetration, something going into the head.  Mild and moderate usually do not.  They usually are closed head injuries meaning nothing has intruded the head and even instead had the brain slashing around inside.

Sometimes infrequently a mild injury can become a moderate injury over time if the particular mechanisms that are not observable on diagnostic imaging ultimately become larger and more pervasive within the brain.
