Injuries Commonly Sustained After an Accident
Injuries after an accident can range in severity. In some cases, the harm is relatively minor, requiring minimal medical treatments and only a short time of care. In other instances, the injuries are severe. Serious injuries can require years of rehabilitation and result in thousands of dollars of lost wages.
Common injuries in personal injury claims:
- Traumatic Brain Injuries - Traumatic brain injuries, or TBIs, are some of the most common injuries sustained after an accident. Whether you are involved in a car accident or a slip and fall, you may suffer a TBI. Brain injuries frequently result in hospitalizations and can prove fatal in severe cases.
- Broken bones - Another common injury in personal injury claims is broken bones. Everything from skull fractures to shattered ankles can happen in a sudden accident. Bones can take months to heal, require extensive surgeries, and leave you with expensive physical therapy.
- Spinal injuries - The spine is absolutely vital to your mobility. Unfortunately, it can easily become damaged in an accident. A herniated disc can cause a pinched nerve, resulting in excruciating pain and discomfort. If the spine becomes severed, it may leave you paralyzed.
- Amputations - Some of the most devastating injuries involve the loss of a limb. Workplace accidents and car crashes most frequently cause amputations. The loss of a limb can leave you unable to work and may deeply affect every aspect of your life.
- Burn injuries - Burn injuries can result in severe harm and may result in disfigurement. Burn injuries frequently require painful treatments such as skin grafting and other surgeries.
If you suffer any type of injury after an accident, you need to seek medical treatment. Many injuries can get worse over time if left untreated. Seeking emergency medical treatment can help ensure that your injuries are accurately diagnosed and promptly treated.
