Can babies get concussions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Babies can get traumatic head injuries just like everyone else. But because babies heads are relatively large and their necks relatively weak, they can get much more severe brain injuries than older children and adults -- for example, shaken impact syndrome.
