Traumatic brain injuries (or TBIs) usually occur from a sudden impact to the head. Concussions are the most common type of TBI. Headache is actually the most commonly seen symptom and may occur on-and-off for days afterwards. Do you keep the victim awake for many hours or wake them frequently? Dr. Alton explains techniques used to triage and treat concussions when help is not on the way and you are the end of the line.
