# Head Injuries: Recognizing and Treating
Head injuries can result from falls, impacts, or accidents and range from minor cuts to serious brain trauma. Mild head injuries may cause dizziness, headaches, or confusion, while severe injuries can lead to unconsciousness, vomiting, or disorientation. Immediate medical attention is crucial if severe symptoms occur.
Concussions, a type of head injury caused by a blow to the head, can affect brain function temporarily. Rest and careful monitoring are important after any head injury, as symptoms may worsen over time. Minor scalp wounds should be cleaned and bandaged to prevent infection, while emergency services should be contacted for more severe injuries.
