How does a blow come to the head, either in a fight – in a traffic accident – or as a result of a fall. However, the impact must be very severe in order to cause damage. Because the human brain is protected by a bone cover that is thicker than 1 centimeter, that is, by the skull. However, because the organ in question is very sensitive, head trauma can be fatal.
Patients who can reach the emergency services alive are taken to intensive care units; Sometimes it can be operated urgently, sometimes later, it can stay in a coma that can last for months, and it may require rehabilitation for a very long time.
Despite all these efforts, these patients can never be the same as before, sometimes they have to live with some sequelae, they have epilepsy and have to take drugs for life, and sometimes they can show some personality changes. For these reasons, the use of modern protection methods such as seat belts, airbags and helmets should never be neglected.
