If you or a loved one have been in an accident, you may have a lot on your plate. This can be especially true if you sustained an injury.

What some may not know is that traumatic brain injuries or TBIs are not always immediately apparent. Knowing the signs of one can help you manage it more quickly, and lead to better outcomes overall.

Physical symptoms to look out for

There can be many different physical symptoms of a TBI to look out for. Some common ones include dizziness, headaches, and issues with vision. You may also notice problems with coordination, as well. Unexpected symptoms like nausea and noticing a bad taste in your mouth are also potential symptoms of a TBI.

Mental symptoms to look out for

Not only does a TBI bring with it physical symptoms, but it often also presents with some mental and emotional symptoms, too. You may notice things like mood swings and increased irritability. Loss of memory or poor memory, in general, is another common sign that a TBI has occurred. Increased inability to focus can be another sign, as can increased confusion.

A TBI can be life-changing. Because of this, it is important to take action if you suspect that you have experienced one. Not only do you need to make sure that you get proper medical care, but you may also need to reach out and get other kinds of help to ensure that you are properly compensated for the injuries that you have experienced.
