Head Injuries - Head Injury Lawyer Bowling Green, MO

Head injuries aren't always outwardly apparent, an individual suffering from a head injury often shows no outward appearance of being injured. However, the effects of a brain injury can last far longer than a broken bone might. People with traumatic head injuries often do not realize they have them and may struggle with tasks they once considered routine after symptoms surface.

So what are the common types of head injuries, and what are the symptoms associated with that injury? Our Personal Injury Lawyers in Bowling Green have experience litigating an expansive variety of head injury claims, and the head injuries they litigate most commonly are as follows:

• Concussions - This is the most common type of head injury. Any force that causes the head to move in a whiplash-like motion, or any direct force that knocks into the skull can cause the brain to violently impact the inside of the skull. This can cause loss of awareness, loss of consciousness, as well as alertness and ability to function for hours after the accident.
• Fractures - This happens when the skull breaks under force. These injuries are often extremely severe. In most cases, severe brain damage does occur.
• Linear Skull Fractures - This is the basic level of skill fractures. There is a break in the bone structure of the skull, but the broken bone does not move anywhere. Typically, little intervention is needed to correct this injury.
• Depressed Skull Fractures - This is one of the more traumatic brain injuries as the brain itself is subject to damage. Surgery is typically required for this level of injury.
• Hematomas - These injuries cause undue pressure on the brain which happens after clots form on or around the brain.
• Epidural Hematoma - This forms between the skull bone and the brain. This type of hematoma can form when blood vessels burst in the brain. In this injury, migraines are very common, as well as loss of consciousness or motor functions.
• Contusion - This type of hematoma is a direct injury to the brain, rather than an outside injury that affects it. Symptoms include bruising, swelling of the brain, loss of consciousness, loss of motor functions and more.

Head Injuries should always be taken seriously, and you should always seek care after any head injury. Your daily basic functions can be drastically affected by a head injury. You may be able to sue the person responsible for your injury. Our Personal Injury Lawyers in Bowling Green can help you with any questions about your rights, and the steps you can take to get a full recovery.

Symptoms of Head Injuries - Head Injury Attorney in Bowling Green

Sometimes knowing whether or not someone has experienced a brain injury or is suffering from a head/brain injury isn't always easy. The skull is thick, but it can't negate all damage that happens during an accident. This can mean that bleeding, swelling, bruising, or even worse injuries can have occurred and be affecting you or your loved one without any outward signs of physical injury. Here are several common symptoms our Head Injury Lawyers in Bowling Green have identified that you should be aware of following any traumatic head injury or traumatic brain injury:

• Sensitivity to Noise or Light - If light or noise appears to negatively affect them and the light and noise are at normal levels, this can be a sign that the head trauma is more severe than initially realized.
• Abnormally Pale Skin - If a person looks abnormally pale after an injury, this can be an indicator of brain damage.
• Severe Constant Headache - Severe Migraines or constant headaches can be signs of brain damage.
• Blurred Vision - When head trauma is significant, blurred vision is often a symptom that is exhibited early.
• Balance Issues - Balance issues or difficulty walking can be a sign of brain damage.
• Abnormal Sweating - Sweating during unusual circumstances can be a sign of brain damage.
• Sensitive to Irritability - A change in behavior, such as unusual irritability can be a sign of underlying brain damage.
