Traumatic Brain Injury
A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, is any trauma or blow to the head that causes a disruption in the normal functioning of your brain. We know that these injuries can cause a lifetime of pain and misery for an inflicted person.
When your TBI was caused by someone else’s negligence and misconduct, you have a right to pursue justice and compensation for your injuries. Besides the significant pain and discomfort a TBI can cause, treating the injury is expensive. Innocent victims should not have to pay that price.
Traumatic brain injuries can range in seriousness from mild to quite severe, and in particularly serious cases, they can be lethal. TBIs can be caused by a wide range of accident types, including:
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Bike accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Construction accidents
- Premises liability cases
It is absolutely crucial that you undergo a complete medical examination after your accident. Catching brain injuries early can pay significant dividends down the road.
Still, a medical exam can miss the early signs of a traumatic brain injury, even when the examination is professional and administered correctly. It’s imperative to watch for the following symptoms if you suffered head trauma during your accident:
- Persistent headaches
- Dizziness
- Memory loss
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Difficulty sleeping
- Light sensitivity
- Loss of coordination
- Seizures
