While a traumatic brain injury (TBI) usually results in immediate symptoms such as loss of consciousness or incoherence, the symptoms of a closed head injury may be much less obvious. However, this does not mean that the danger is any less serious. Any time a person suffers a blow to the head or sudden, violent movement (such as whiplash) the brain can suffer microscopic tearing or bleeding.
Initial symptoms of a milder head injury can include fuzzy thinking or a headache. Additional symptoms may not surface until days after the injured person has been assessed in the emergency room. It is therefore essential to monitor your condition (or the condition of your loved one) after any serious accident.
