D. severe; the R.I.C.E. formula

The answer is C. Head injuries should never be overlooked. This is because the brain could be damaged yet it is the most important organ of the body.

Some injuries result to internal hemorrhage that is not detected then but later causes serious brain damage such as intracranial hematoma.
