Contusion is more serious type of head injury than the cerebral concussion. In case of concussion, you do not have any visible injury in CAT scan. The loss of consciousness in momentary. In case of contusion the damage can be seen in CAT scan. The loss of consciousness is usually sustained. The small blood vessels are ruptured usually. You may get the oedema of the brain tissue.
A contusion is a bruise. Contusions result from breaking small capillaries. A contusion of the brain can occur without an obvious bruise on the outside. A concussion involves a force to the brain itself. The brain hits the skull inside the head, with no fracture. A contusion of the brain and concussion of the brain both need time to heal. But a concussion is more serious than a contusion.
Contusions of the brain are bruises usually associated with more severe trauma than necessary for concussion.
A cerebral contusion is more serious than a concussion.
Concussion - Mild brain injury, results in a temporary loss of consciousness Contusion - Occurs when bruising of the brain happens, a more severe type of injury

Batman is mortal, Hercules only half. Batman is modern & more cerebral using multi technologies & Herc was more of a gladiator.
A bruise is a contusion. This medical word sounds, and the bruise itself often looks, much more serious than it actually is. A bruise or contusion occurs when small superficial blood vessels are injured, allowing blood to seep into surrounding tissues. If there is no underlying injury, such as a fracture, superficial bruises heal within 7-10 days. If there is trauma or fracture, bruising can linger for weeks to months.
