<title>How Can We Prevent TBI - Traumatic Brain Injury?</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p>Unlike most neurological disorders, head injuries can be prevented. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested taking the following safety precautions for reducing the risk of suffering a TBI.</p>
<p>Wearing a seatbelt when driving or riding in a car. <img width="160" height="115" align="right" src="http://brainandspine.titololawoffice.com/Car crash.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Buckling children into a child safety seat, booster seat, or seatbelt (depending on the child's age) every time the child rides in a car.</p>
<p>Wearing a helmet and making sure children wear helmets when riding a bike or motorcycle;</p>
<p>Playing a contact sport such as American football or ice hockey;</p>
<p>Using in-line skates or riding a skateboard;</p>
<p>Batting and running bases in baseball or softball;</p>
<p>Riding a horse;</p>
<p>Rock climbing;</p>

<p>Skiing or snowboarding.</p>
<p>Keeping firearms and bullets stored in a locked cabinet when not in use.</p>
<p>Avoiding falls by using a step-stool with a grab bar to reach objects on high shelves;</p>
<p>Installing handrails on stairways;</p>
<p>Installing window guards to keep young children from falling out of open windows;</p>
