According to a study conducted by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in Philadelphia, concussions (or mild traumatic brain injury) can have lasting effects on a person's health and well-being. The study made note of certain nerve-cell disconnections that occurred following concussions, leading researchers to conclude that even mild traumatic injury can cause permanent damage to an individual's brain.
