Making Sense With A Brain Injury Expert

By Pamela Hughes


Humans are, by and large, the single most intelligent creatures on the planet. Even the least intelligent among humanity still has far more brain power than an animal. To bridge the gap in physical ability, humanity created tools. Humankind compensated for the lack of physical ability with an abundance of mental ability. And it paid off spectacularly. No great ape species is a prevalent across the planet as the human being. Chimps and bonobos may use sticks, but human beings have smart phones and guns and even invented fully operable giant robots. But the great irony is that the weapon that allowed such a global conquest is by far the single frailest part of the human body. When such frailty is tested, the assistance of a brain injury expert must be sought out.

Unfortunately, neurological trauma is among the most comprehensive maladies that can befall a person. The thing about the brain is that it does not mend, not fully. Skin and organs can heal and with time, it will be like the injury never happened. That is not the case with the mass of gray matter house inside the skull. Once an injury occurs, it is always a little more broken than it was before, the cells do not replicate as they do in the skin.

The thing about neurological trauma is how slowly it takes from a person and how much it takes. It takes everything from a person and the people who love that person have no choice but to watch. The abilities of an individual can go out of the window as fine motor skills stop working. Communication becomes more difficult starts to slur. Worst of all, a person can start to forget. A person can look the love of their life right in the face and see a stranger, all because their brain starts to atrophy.

The most common ways that brains get hurt is through blunt force trauma. In other words, being hit in the head really hard. This is extremely common among those who play rugby, American football, and ice hockey, mainly because a single headshot is rarely enough to put a player out of the game, so they are given the opportunity to add more headshots to their growing collection.

Most people are afraid of neurological trauma. So when the symptoms first present, denial is the go to reaction. But those symptoms are not going to go away. The only thing to do is accept that help is necessary.

The treatments for such traumatic neurological injuries will not come cheap. Because of the specialized skill set involved, such doctors are in very high demand. Because of how delicate the mind is, the treatments have to very precise. None of that is going to come without a cost.

Experts in the field of neurology all go to school. The doctors go through medical school to learn medicine. Then, after an internship, they declare a specialty and train further at a hospital.

Finding a specialist is all about recommendations. A hospital will generally have a neurology department. But the real specialists do not advertise their services in magazines.

Human minds are as fragile as glass. Like glass, once broken, it can be reassembled, but never truly fixed. So, breakage should be avoided as much as possible.
