What You Should Know About Head Injuries

You do not have to hit your head to sustain Head Injuries & Brain Trauma. Your brain may strike the inside of your skull during the sudden acceleration followed by sudden deceleration that happens during a crash, for example. You, therefore, may have no outward signs of a concussion.

You also may not experience symptoms of brain damage right away. Symptoms may not manifest for several days or weeks after the crash and may only become evident to family, friends and colleagues who notice subtle changes in your memory, cognition and judgment. In many cases, only an MRI or CT scan can accurately diagnose head injury immediately after an automobile crash.

These misconceptions lead many car crash victims to forgo or delay crucial treatment. Even if you do not hit your head or notice symptoms, consult with your doctor about the potential of a head injury after a serious accident.

Consequences of a Head Injuries & Brain Trauma

Even a so-called “minor” concussion affects your job, relationships and quality of life. In the short term, you may experience headaches, blurred vision, memory loss and impaired cognition and balance from Head Injuries & Brain Trauma. In addition, you risk compounding your injuries if you sustain a second concussion before the first has fully healed, making experienced medical care essential to your long-term health.

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

Motor vehicle accidents are one of the most common causes of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Moderate TBI may result in permanent disabilities that range from mild to severe.

The most severe TBI can result in coma, vegetative state, minimally conscious state and brain death from which the victim may never recover. Patients require 24-hour care, often by family members whose lives are also forever changed.

Our Phoenix injury attorneys in Phoenix understand the heartbreak when a loved one sustains serious brain trauma. We also recognize the tremendous changes in your own life as you care for your loved one. When appropriate, we represent the patient and family members in damages recovery.
