Maybe you\u2019re out for a drive with your wife, just to enjoy the day. Or perhaps you forgot you\u2019re out of cereal and decided to make a quick trip to the store when seemingly out of nowhere, your car is struck from behind. Your head slams forward, hitting the steering wheel and you \u201csee stars.\u201d Chances are, that even in this simple car accident, you\u2019ve sustained a head injury \u2014 and you\u2019re not sure just how bad it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Head and Brain Injuries Are Wide-Ranging and Complex<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even when there are no visible signs of an injury, a head injury can cause an individual to lose brain function. Concussions are a common traumatic brain injury (TBI) after a crash, but there are more complex conditions that victims experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skull Fractures<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your skull is incredibly strong and difficult to break, but the forces associated with a car accident can cause fractures. While a skull fracture doesn\u2019t always result in a brain injury, penetrating injuries and severe fractures can damage the brain\u2019s delicate tissues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hematoma<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A hematoma occurs when a blood vessel ruptures and you have internal bleeding. As the blood pools and clots, it causes pressure that can lead to serious brain damage or death. Depending on the hematoma\u2019s size and location, you may need an emergency surgery to reduce this pressure and protect your brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #d8240c\"><b>&#8220;Head and brain injuries are delicate and complicated. If you think you or a loved one is suffering from a TBI, you must address the injury right away.&#8221;<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hemorrhage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Impact and head trauma can cause veins in the brain to tear and bleed. Bleeding can cause a significant amount of swelling in the brain \u2014 swelling the brain doesn\u2019t have space to accommodate, putting it at further risk of injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shear Injury<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also known as a diffuse axonal injury (DAI), shear injuries affect the nerves in the brain. When fibers in your nerves, called axons, stretch or tear, your brain cannot send and receive messages as effectively. While some DAIs are fatal, many victims survive and face a difficult recovery, which may involve physical and occupational therapy that encourages the brain to \u201crewire\u201d and adapt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>RELATED ARTICLE: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/webdemo.icu\/site\/andywins\/blog\/mild-traumatic-brain-injuries-can-cause-life-changing-symptoms-and-you-deserve-compensation\/\"><strong>\u201cMild\u201d Traumatic Brain Injuries Can Cause Life-Changing Symptoms \u2014 and You Deserve Compensation<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Signs You\u2019ve Experienced a Head Injury<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, many brain injuries go undiagnosed. If you lost consciousness during an accident, experienced a severe headache, or mental confusion, you may have a TBI. Common TBI symptoms include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Blacking out at the time of the accident<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Headache<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Visible cuts, bruising, or skull depressions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nausea and vomiting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ringing in ears<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confusion<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brain fog<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Memory loss<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sleeping more than usual<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Loss of balance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Convulsions or seizures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slurred speech<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inability to move or control arms or legs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sensory issues, including a bad taste in your mouth and loss of smell<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mood changes, depression or anxiety<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Problems concentrating<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re experiencing any of these symptoms after a car crash, seek immediate medical care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Did You Suffer Head Trauma in a Wreck? Here\u2019s What to Do Next<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Head and brain injuries are delicate and complicated. If you think you or a loved one is suffering from a TBI, you must address the injury right away. Here\u2019s what we recommend victims do if they think they\u2019re suffering from head trauma:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seek Medical Attention Right Away<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should go to the doctor after a crash, even if you\u2019ve only experienced minor bumps and bruises. If you put off going to Urgent Care or the Emergency Room after the accident, you should go as soon as you experience any of the symptoms listed above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rest and Recharge<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After you experience head trauma, your doctor may suggest that you take some time to both physically and mentally rest. You\u2019ve been through a lot. However, studies suggest that you shouldn\u2019t take it easy for too long \u2013 activity-centered therapy may help you regain brain function and mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Follow Your Doctor\u2019s Orders<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your doctor will give you specific directions depending on the type of head or brain injury you\u2019ve sustained. Concussion care and treatment of a fractured skull can be very different, so be careful to follow these specific directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep Track of Your Expenses and Symptoms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a bad crash, you will probably want to file a personal injury claim. It\u2019s in your best interest to document your injuries, and keep track of your medical bills, treatment plans, and any other costs you incur after the accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Consider Contacting an Attorney<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accident victims should never suffer because of someone else\u2019s neglect. You deserve justice for your injuries, especially when your head or brain injury leaves your life radically different than before the accident.
