What Are the Signs of a Brain Injury in a Child?

Brain injuries are categorized as mild, moderate, or severe, but make no mistake—there is no such thing as a minor medical issue when a brain injury is involved. Any time a child is exhibiting symptoms of a brain injury, it is a medical emergency and should be treated as such.

As a parent, it is important to familiarize yourself with the signs of brain injury in a child. If your child suffers a serious fall or blow to the head and you notice any of the symptoms discussed in this article, or your child seems to be acting unusually or out of character, seek medical care immediately.

As a parent, you want to protect your child from everything in the world, especially harm. Unfortunately, accidents can’t always be avoided, and your children can get hurt. When they sustain minor injuries, healing can be easy, and they can return to normal rather quickly. However, if they suffer from a brain injury, their entire lives could change in an instant.

When your concussion symptoms last longer than the expected recovery time, it’s possible you have post-concussion syndrome (PCS). These are also known as persistent post-concussive symptoms. While concussions can be mild and heal relatively quickly, sometimes their symptoms last past when your doctor said you should be recovered by. Since this injury deals with your brain, it’s important to talk to your doctor immediately to see if you have PCS.
