(Dr.) Sidney Hinds II, DVBIC national director. \u201cWearing personal protective gear, especially a helmet, and being responsible on the road can reduce instances of serious injury \u2014 particularly to the rider\u2019s head.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Motorcycle safety training is mandatory for all Defense Department personnel. In addition, service members are required to wear personal protective equipment, such as long sleeves, eye protection and helmets, even if they ride in a \u201cno-helmet\u201d state.<\/p>\n<p>The A Head for the Future initiative offers these tips to help prevent TBIs sustained in motorcycle collisions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Always wear your helmet and make sure it fits properly, tightening the strap snug to fit your head<\/li>\n<li>Passengers should wear helmets too<\/li>\n<li>Drive safely, at or under the designated speed limit<\/li>\n<li>Use other means of transportation during inclement weather<\/li>\n<li>Never drive while under the influence of alcohol, drugs or prescription medication<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Raising awareness about the signs and symptoms of brain injury, educating service members and veterans about ways to be safe during daily activities, and encouraging them to seek treatment helps preserve the health of the nation\u2019s military force, Hinds said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cModerate to severe brain injuries can be easily diagnosed, but the signs and symptoms of a concussion can be the most difficult TBIs to recognize,\u201d said Dr. Scott Livingston, DVBIC director of education. \u201cIt is vital to understand how to detect a brain injury to know when to seek help from a medical professional.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The most common signs and symptoms of brain injury include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Headache or a sensation of pressure in the head \u2014 the most common symptom of TBI<\/li>\n<li>Dizziness, feeling off-balance or a sensation of spinning<\/li>\n<li>Memory loss<\/li>\n<li>Sleep problems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>No one should return to vigorous physical activity after any type of brain injury, even a concussion, without the evaluation of a trained medical professional, Livingston said.<\/p>\n<p><em>Since 1989, the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/clekis.com\/service\/personal-injury\/\" target=\"_blank\">personal injury attorney<\/a>\u00a0of Clekis Law Firm have been representing injured people and their families in Charleston and throughout the Low Country.
