Traumatic Brain Injuries
Trauma to the brain often occurs as a result of a motor vehicle accident. This can happen when the head strikes an object such as the steering wheel or the windshield of the car. The head does not even have to come into contact with an object. In some cases, the force of the accident will cause the brain to collide with the internal bone of the skill. This can lead to bruising or bleeding of the brain or a concussion. These types of injuries are not readily seen at the time of the accident.
The victim of a brain injury may suffer symptoms such as
- A loss of memory
- Light or noise sensitivities
- Headaches
- Dizziness
- Changes in concentration
- Changes in energy levels or mood
- Insomnia
- Appetite changes
- Mood changes
- Changes in the ability to perform tasks
- Impulsive or socially unacceptable behavior
Spinal Cord Injuries
When parts of the bone, discs, or ligaments are damaged in an accident and cause bruises, tears, or other damage to the spinal cord, it can cause serious and often life-threatening injuries. Motor vehicle accidents are the most common cause of spinal cord injuries today resulting in 47 percent of all spinal cord injury claims.
Physical symptoms of a spinal cord injury can include:
- Numbness or tingling
- Headache
- A pressure or stiffness at the neck region
- Unconsciousness
- Inability to control bodily functions
- Difficulty or inability to move limbs
- Brain damage
- Paraplegia
- Quadriplegia
Accidents resulting in spinal cord damage can be devastating for injury victims and their families and will almost always require extensive, ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, and support.
