BRAIN DAMAGE:
Possible causes of widespread (diffuse) #brain damage include prolonged #hypoxia (shortage of oxygen), poisoning, infection, and #neurological illness. Common causes of focal or localized #brain damage are physical trauma (traumatic #brain injury), #stroke#aneurysm, or #neurological illness.
All #traumatic brain injuries are #head injuries. But head injury is not necessarily #brain injury. There are two types of #brain injury: traumatic #brain injury and acquired brain injury.
Both disrupt the #brain’s normal functioning.
• #Traumatic Brain Injury (#TBI) is caused by an external force -- such as a blow to the head -- that causes the #brain to move inside the skull or damages the skull. This in turn damages the #brain.
• Acquired Brain Injury (#ABI) occurs at the cellular level. It is most often associated with pressure on the #brain. This could come from a tumor. Or it could result from #neurological illness, as in the case of a #stroke.
