Concussions are caused whenyou are struck or violently shaken in a car accident or from head trauma such as receiving a hard blow to the head (ex: a punch or kick), which causes your brain to come into contact with the interior wall of the skull. Essentially bruising your brain. Different membranes protect the brain as well as cerebrospinal fluid.
