Approximately 2.5 million people in the US experience a brain injury annually. While the most common causes of brain injury are due to falls, automobile accidents, and assaults; they can also occur while playing sports or riding bicycles, motorcycles or all-terrain-vehicles. Brain injuries also occur when someone is experiencing a stroke, having a heart attack, or even choking.
