Here is a very good article. It explains what happens during a diffuse axonal injury. It says that 30 drugs for repair of this injury have failed in clinical trials.

thanks mark

the after burn we experience seems to be observed in this study ,trying to use a damaged brain can only add to the cascade effect

the body's answer to this is coma . so resting both body and mind after any injury event is so important

also to clinically observe the results of repeat low level impact and chemical damage this causes is relevant

so the damaged person has to take so much care to avoid any impact, and like we experience day to day bumps and exertions can set in motion in my case migraine

we know more about outer space ,than we do about our own brains

good that research is moving forward, sometimes all we can do is take hope from, such findings, and be all we can for the now,
