Symptoms of a brain injury vary depending on the severity and mechanism of the injury and the brain networks affected.  These symptoms may be temporary, lasting a few days or weeks, or more permanent, lasting several months or longer.   Approximately 80% of symptoms from a mild TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) resolve without treatment.   Any symptoms lasting longer than 6 months or of sufficient severity must be treated by a professional.
