Head and Neck Injuries

Every year, nearly two million Americans will suffer a head injury of some type and for those under the age of 44, traumatic brain injuries account for approximately 34 percent of all injury-related deaths. Head injuries are primarily caused by motor vehicle accidents, sports or physical activity or other traumatic blows to the skull, including firearms.

It almost goes without saying that if you are in pain from any injury, regardless of which part of your body is hurt, you need to get the medical attention necessary to put you on the road to wellness. In some cases, severe injuries can take months, years and sometimes longer to heal. Some injuries, especially head and neck traumas, don’t ever heal properly and can cause lifetime pain and suffering.

Concussions, head traumas and other closed head injuries often go unnoticed by victims initially. Common symptoms include:

• Altered levels or loss of consciousness
• Internal bleeding (brain bleeds)
• Severe headaches
• Memory loss
• Blurred vision
• Slurred speech
• Drowsiness or fatigue
• Fluid discharge from the mouth, nose or ears
• Concussive syndrome is a condition in which symptoms of a concussion can last an extremely long time or come and go over a period of time

It has been proven that the long-term ramifications of head trauma can lead to a host of problems for victims. If you’ve been hurt and sustained a head or neck injury, depending on the severity, you could experience paralysis, loss of hearing, loss of vision, seizures or long term cognitive disabilities. The average cost of care for a traumatic brain injury survivor is estimated at over $151,000. If you or someone you know is dealing with a head, brain or neck injury, speak to an attorney who will fight for your rights and get you compensated for your injuries.
