S06.30: Focal cerebral and cerebellar injury, unspecified

You have hurt your brain as a result of a head injury.

The brain is made up of several areas. For example, the cerebrum is used to think and plan actions. In the cerebellum, movements are initialized and coordinated. The brain stem is responsible for various unconscious tasks such as breathing. The brain stem passes into the spinal cord. The brain is surrounded and protected by skull bone.

You have injured your head. The brain may be damaged as a result. If someone falls heavily on their head, for example, their brain can bang into the wall of their skull.

You have injured your brain and your cerebellum.
