Injury or physical
trauma is a damage caused by an external force. Injuries can happen at any
point of time by an accident, hits, weapons and any other reasons.
The scalp, skull, or
brain is affected by any trauma or injury is called head injury and it might
happen due to a minor bump on the skull or a serious brain injury. The depth of
any head injury is analyzed on how hard the head hit and how it affected in our
brain. Basic head injuries include concussions, skull fractures, and scalp wounds.
The head injury treatments varies on the basis of what
caused and how severe the depth.
The injury which doesn't
break the skull is termed as closed head injury and if it breaks your scalp and
affects your skull and brain is known as an open or penetrating head injury.
Head injuries can happen due to blows and shake. Shaking can affect usually
within infants and children due to violent shaking and can occur at any time. Head injuries related to blows are
motor vehicle accidents, falls, physical assaults, sports or any activity

impact towards the head is severe, the concussion occurs. The hammering of
function connected with a concussion is temporary but the repeated concussions
will lead to permanent damage.

Edema
Edema can occur from any brain injury. Injuries lead to swelling of the nearby
tissues and it is more stern when it happens in your brain. The skull is unable
to stretch for accommodating the bulge and this eventually builds up the
pressure in your brain. This will cause your brain to press against your skull.
Your skull doesn’t have bone marrow
and that makes the skull extremely tough and hard to break. A broken skull is
not capable to take up the collision of a blow, this will harm to your brain.

axonal injury to the brain will never cause bleeding but damages the brain
cells. This is considered the most dangerous injury since it is not visible and
can lead to brain damage or death.
