Concussion, also known as mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), is a condition caused by a blow or jolt to the head, resulting in temporary impairment of brain function. It is a common injury that can occur in various situations, such as sports-related accidents, falls, or motor vehicle accidents.

The symptoms of a concussion can vary widely and may include headaches, dizziness, confusion, memory problems, difficulty concentrating, and sensitivity to light or noise. These symptoms may appear immediately after the injury or may develop over time.

While most concussions are mild and resolve on their own with rest and time, some individuals may experience more severe or prolonged symptoms, requiring medical attention. It is important to seek medical evaluation for any suspected concussion to ensure proper diagnosis, management, and prevention of potential complications.
