There's tons of new research on mTBI coming out. We all should be aware that there can be confounding factors at time of injury, like hyperthermia. Not only is the concussed brain more vulnerable to insults, but so too is the victim of heat exhaustion.
I notice research shows that hypothermia (cooling) is therapeutic for TBI but this appears to apply to the severe form. Can ANYONE comment on the riskiness of hot baths for mTBI sufferers. . what is the limiting temperature (eg,99.6?) Can the brain have a different temperature from the usual tongue measurement? Is the mTBI brain inflamed? |
