Does brain damage get worse as time goes on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Extent more apparent: If the question relates to how & when children begin to show evidence of brain injury it is a matter of changing expectations & emerging deficiencies. The adult with a brain injury has an established baseline & injury is immediately apparent.If an infant suffered injury to nerves, it may not become apparent until the kid doesn't walk, talk etc. Not worse, just more apparent as they age.

Hello, My name is Jesse. I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to get better sleep at night? I try to go to bed at the same time every night and have the same nightly routine. I tend to wake up 5-6 times regularly throughout the night. Sometimes it is very hard to shut the brain off. Any ideas or tips and how to help with this? Thanks in advance. Sleep?
