TREATMENT FOR CONCUSSIONS & TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES

TREATMENTS WE PROVIDE

Various treatments can be considered when dealing with a traumatic brain injury, depending on the severity of the case. Our physicians will provide options and recommendations for the best path forward.

  1. Medications :  Sometimes, the simplest treatment is to prescribe medications that target and treat the symptoms of TBI, such as pain relievers, anti-seizure medications, and diuretics.
  2. Rehabilitation Therapy : A brain injury can cause physical and cognitive impairments that make returning to a normal life more challenging. Rehabilitation will assist with regaining movement, speech, and other functions.
  3. Assistive Devices : Depending on the severity of your brain injury, you might require aids such as a wheelchair, walker, or hearing aids.
  4. Surgery : Surgery is a last resort if our physicians detect blood clots, need to relieve pressure on the brain, or need to repair a fractured skull.

Regardless of the case, our clinic will help provide the best course of action. Our team includes neurologists, neurosurgeons, a rehabilitation center, and additional healthcare providers who will handle your traumatic brain injury case with the utmost care.
