I can’t get a answer from askdocs. Just wanting to understand if the kind of brain damage that keeps turning people crazy is from really bad head injuries or just from alot of less bad head injuries or both or if theres anything to prevent getting CTE besides avoiding concussions obviously. thank you.

Encephalopathy means that your brain isn’t working right. Chronic means that your brain is always not working right and is not just screwed up due to poisoning or alcohol or something like that. Traumatic means that it’s caused by an injury, and not for instance genetics. So taking them all together, chronic traumatic encephalopathy means that your brain doesn’t work right due to be repeatedly hit.
