A
traumatic
brain injury is caused by a
blow
to the head powerful enough to disrupt brain function. The most common causes are falls, fights, assaults and car accidents. The people most prone to
suffering
them are young men,especially poor ones. A child from a poor background is four times more likely to suffer a brain injury before the age of five than a child from a wealthy background. Even mild
concussion
cancause long-term damage. Brain injuries can impair the way people think,experience emotions and control their own behaviour. Problems often occur whenthere is damage to
the prefrontal cortex
,which is associated with aggression and a lack of inhibition.
