A brain injury occurs when the brain is damaged by an external force, lack of oxygen, or internal factors such as bleeding. It can lead to temporary or permanent impairments in physical, cognitive, and emotional functions. Immediate medical attention and proper rehabilitation are crucial for the best outcomes.

🔹 Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): Caused by falls, road accidents, or sports injuries.

🔹 Brain Tumors: Can compress brain tissues, leading to injury.
🔹 Infections: Such as meningitis or encephalitis.
🔹 Lack of Oxygen (Hypoxia): From drowning, cardiac arrest, or suffocation.
