If you crashed your 4WD into a tree without seat belts on and drove away should you be worried about your mental well-being?
If you crashed your 4WD into a tree without seat belts on and drove away, yes, you should be worried about your mental well being. The above example is a scenario in which Tramatic Brain Injury is caused. Damage to the brain resulting from external mechanical force, such as rapid acceleration or deceleration, or impact can cause "shearing" of the brain tissue. The initial injury can present as a mild concussion to a more disabling traumatic brain injury. This injury may not present until hours or days after the incident, so being "worried" or seeking medical help is appropriate. TBI is usually the name given to the brain injury which is sustained *not* from penetration of the skull or brain, but from the rapid acceleration, deceleration or impact, such as in Shaken Baby Syndrome, another cause of TBI, which can be fatal.
