A concussion is a mild form of traumatic brain
injury (TBI) caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the
head. Concussions can also occur from a fall or a
blow to the body that causes the head to move
rapidly back and forth. Doctors may describe these
injuries as "mild" because concussions are usually
not life-threatening. Even so, their effects can be
serious. Understanding the signs and symptoms of
a concussion can help you get better more quickly.
