What Is a Concussion?

A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a sudden impact, blow, or jolt to the head or body that disrupts normal brain function. It can occur during sports, falls, accidents, or any situation where the brain moves rapidly inside the skull. Symptoms may include headache, dizziness, confusion, nausea, and sensitivity to light or noise. Some people may also experience memory issues or difficulty concentrating. Although concussions are usually not life-threatening, they require proper care and rest to heal. Early evaluation and guided recovery are important to prevent complications and ensure a safe return to daily activities.
