Does every shake to the head damage the brain? even hitting it lightly just enough to 'vibrate' the skull?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Head: We shake our heads a lot - such as dancing or exercising without problems. When one has to be very careful - is with infants. There little brains can become injured easily with shaking.
