Yes, brain injury can happen when force is used. But, this has nothing to do with Autism. For the most part the brain of autistic child looks normal. Aberration in Autism is observed synaptically i.e. in the way the brain cells connect to one another, which in turn is responsible for regulation of how the brain coordinates bodily functions. Autism is not caused by physical injury to the brain.
