Patient's question:
A friend of mine has been complaining of headaches recently and sometimes having seizures. They don't want to go to the hospital for a check-up. What are the causes of post-traumatic brain injury?Doctor's answer:
Post-traumatic brain injury (PTBI) sequelae refer to a long-term condition characterized by autonomic nervous system dysfunction, endocrine disorders, and psychological symptoms following a traumatic brain injury. These sequelae include symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, hyperesthesia, and irritability. Some of these PTBI-related issues can be fully resolved, so there is no need to worry excessively at this time. It is advisable to undergo a thorough examination at a hospital specializing in post-traumatic brain injury follow-up. Additionally, dietary attention is also required—consumption of high-nutrient foods such as milk, eggs, and fish should be increased.
