What are some of the effects of traumatic brain injuries?

  

Answers


Francis
Traumatic brain injuries can cause both immediate and long term changes in the way a child functions. Immediate effects often include: loss of consciousness (minutes to days), headaches, vision problems, memory loss, and confusion. Long-term effects can include lack of skills in social situations, organization, planning, short-term memory and anger management. These problems may not show up for years, which makes it difficult to connect the problems a child is having to a brain injury that happened many years ago. This is because the academic and social skills children learn as they get older become increasingly complex.
