Health Watch: Improving Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery

nice story,would love to see more on the rehab techniques progress and how they at lighthouse fund it

I bet they would be happy if I stayed like that forever.

My husband also severe tbi coma during 8 months how many months it recovery

This makes me so hopeful my brother is going through the same thing and is now making progress👏🏽

This is further proof that we don’t have to live with disabilities and that we can work towards healing and cures. God is good.

My brother just got into a very bad motorcycle accident yesterday afternoon. He suffered severe brain face and head trauma im talking real bad facial reconstruction has to be done and parts of his brain was removed, now he has to learn to walk and talk and even eat again they are saying it’s a possibility he’s going to be paralyzed after this whole thing. I’m so hurt but with god all things are possible I’m hoping and praying for the best and that he recovers just like the man from this video . My brother took pride in his looks and now his face is messed up he was super intelligent and sharp with his words now he has brain trauma .. a huge change in his life that’s killing me but again god got my brother I have so much faith that he will bounce back . God is that good .

My name is Jeffrey 15 years ago I had an accident by colliding with motorbike so I fell backwards. I was blackout for few minutes and everything came back normal but with few antibiotics I was ok. Just after a years I started experiencing severe bad breath that smell like dead stuff. You can hardly explain the smell but really awful that smell more than 1000 kilometres away . Please I have visited every hospital in my country and no lotion . After taking ginkgo herb started experiencing slight movement or tingling at the back of my head and some time all over my head. But the back of my head pains a bit after 15 . My problem is the terrible bad breath . Any suggestions???

I suffered an sTBI and was out for months. I have finally recovered enough now - three years later - but am consistently being treated like shit and have become more suicidal than I have ever been previously.

Life is crazy and has really gone down the shitter since having my accident. So, I'm glad to see that others have had more success than me with their post-brain-injury recoveries.

My dad is in coma from last 55 days. He has got severe brain injury. Dr are saying his brain is 85% damaged. Can he ever wakeup from coma? Are there any chances of his recovery?

Glad he managed to recover

"Agitation" post-coma is common; when I was injured in 1981, I was comatose for four weeks. Any insult to the brain will provoke a severe reaction.

After I [gradually] came to, I was said to be in a period of agitation so severe the medical personnel had to bind me in "fishnets" so I didn't flail out and disturb the equipment. I even tried to walk and fell on my nose; they called me "Houdini" for getting out of the restraints!

At the time I was injured, there were a lot of TBI patients who didn't make it; I also had a massive intercranial head bleed, meaning that the doctors didn't know how severe the sequelae would be. At this time—over 30 years later—I am ambulatory and living independently in NYC.

Thank you for this video and jonathan experience give me strength and hope to cure my brother who just had tbi and now he is in stage where he remember all his family but cursing and yelling because of his mental trauma ❤

Dude reminds me of peewee Herman

In 1975 I was a catcher in a little league softball team and this big kid struck out so he turned around and hit me as hard as he could with the bat ..I was blacked out for over 3 days the doctors back then said they didn’t see any fracture so there was nothing they couldn’t go ..in 1987 I was racing moto cross and crashed so hard my helmet split ,I fractured my cheek..I was out for 2 days ..in 2005 I was mugged in Vegas and spent 2 days in the hospital I had a fractured skull and broken jaw,in 2017 I fell 6 feet onto a metal toolbox from a ladder I spent 2 days in the hospital fractured skull,broken jaw broken cheek,I has 1 years of physical therapy and 2 years of cognitive and speech therapy..I’m now disabled I’m 57 …

amazing that he is able to recover so well

Death gotta be easy cause life is hard. I’ve had sTBI for 4 months, can barely walk and can’t use my right hand for anything.. I have hemiplegia… it’s not that I think about ending my life, but I sometimes wish the accident brought me peace. I had never had depression in life. Now I do

Does tinnitus after head injury go away ?

Me too dude

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy [ HBOT ]

there are different degrees of brain injury... this case was nit that hard... and i truly know wat i m talking about

What about memoty loss ?

Hi I recently did brain surgery and my left arm has no co ordination are there any techniques to help with this

Trumatic brain injury is hell even if its years later

My brother had met with an accident and suffered severe head trauma and undergone craniotomy (half of his skull got removed to relieve pressure). It's been month since his surgery and now he can open his eyes and can look around and can raise his arm upto the belly level and able to shake his legs. He is been sleeping a lot than being active which concerns me a lot, whether this will delay the recovery. I really hope my brother will comeback as like before and will be with us like he used to. I am not losing any hope that he will be back like normal,but everytime I look at him, it aches my heart to see my brother in that condition. God help us and please pray for my brother if you're reading this.
