Know the Many Types of Brain Injuries

Brain injuries may vary significantly in terms of severity and associated symptoms.

  • Concussion
  • Contusion
  • Penetrating brain injury

Concussion

A concussion is the most common type of brain damage, which is often caused by a quick hit or shock to the head. A concussion is characterized by an intense headache, momentary loss of memory, and nausea. 

While moderate concussion symptoms may resolve within a few days, a severe concussion may result in prolonged unconsciousness, cognitive problems, and irreversible memory loss.

Contusion

When an accident results in bleeding or bruising of the brain, this is referred to as a contusion. As with a concussion, the degree of this damage varies. A minor contusion may result in a headache, transient disorientation, or dizziness. A severe contusion may result in unconsciousness, convulsions, and long-lasting coordination problems.

Penetrating brain injury

Finally, a penetrating brain injury occurs when an item enters the skull and injures the brain directly. These sorts of injuries are most often sustained in automobile accidents. Still, they may also occur on construction sites, on hunting trips, or in any occurrence involving flying or falling items.

Serious Accidents Can Cause Brain and Head Injuries

Brain Injury LawyersAny significant hit to the head may result in a mild, moderate, or severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), resulting in anything from simple symptoms to life-long physical and mental disabilities. TBI is a medical emergency that, if left untreated, may result in significant harm or death. 

Apart from being hit in the head or colliding with another item with the head, which may result in a concussion or skull fracture, a TBI can also occur as a consequence of a whiplash-type incident, during which the head is abruptly shaken or jerked. These circumstances may result in brain bruising or bleeding, resulting in lifelong brain damage or death.

The Rollins Law Firm’s Mississippi personal injury attorney assists TBI sufferers and their families in obtaining the compensation they need after a car accident, job injury, or other incident resulting in a severe brain injury. Several of the most common sorts of instances that result in brain injuries include the following:

  • Car Accidents
  • Truck Accidents
  • Motorcycle Accidents
  • Slip and Fall Accidents
  • Boating and Maritime Accidents
  • Construction Accidents

What Happens as a Result of a Traumatic Brain Injury?

A traumatic brain injury impairs the brain’s normal function and throws neurotransmitters and neurons out of balance. This imbalance may have a profound effect on how someone’s body functions and their habits, activities, and way of thinking. These chemical imbalances may take weeks or even months to correct if they ever do.

The human brain can adjust to new surroundings, but this process takes time. Constructing a new neural network is a lengthy process, one of the key reasons why treatment and rehabilitation must be endured for months, if not years, after a traumatic brain injury. While the symptoms of traumatic brain injuries vary from person to person, a few indicators are often recognized. Among these symptoms include but are not limited to the following:

  • Effects on Behavior
  • Temper deficiency 
  • Impulsivity
  • Effects on the Physical
  • Perplexing vision
  • Dizziness
  • Speech Difficulty
  • Headaches
  • Effects on the Cognitive System
  • Concentration difficulties
  • Attention problems 
  • Attention problems

A Traumatic Brain Injury’s Long-Term Effects

Victims of severe brain injuries may recover and prevent long-term health consequences with the correct treatment. However, more severe brain injury victims may continue to suffer from the injury’s effects long after the first symptoms have passed. Severe brain injuries may have a long-lasting influence on patients’ physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being. Permanent harm may occur in certain instances.

Following a brain injury, the sufferer may need medical care and aid with daily activities for a lengthy period of time.

Victims of brain injuries may also suffer damage due to the limits resulting from their injury. For instance, a brain injury victim may be unable to return to their previous employment after a traumatic brain injury, resulting in lost pay and non-economic pain and suffering, damages caused by a sense of purposelessness, and restricted prospects. 

Additionally, an individual may need vocational training to acquire new skills or refresh previously received information. The damages produced by a traumatic brain injury are much greater than the physical effect and medical expenditures incurred, and may impair every aspect of a victim’s life. As such, consulting a Mississippi personal injury lawyer can help you get fair compensation over the damages caused by the catastrophic injury.

Why Do You Need an Experienced Mississippi Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney?

Several factors contribute to the complexity of a brain injury case, making it vital that you seek informed and expert counsel from an experienced attorney. A brain injury may result in persistent, lifelong problems, or its exact impact may be unknown. Individuals who have suffered a brain injury may need various medical treatments, including occupational and physical therapy, vocational rehabilitation, and emotional and cognitive support.

A lawyer with expertise on severe brain injury cases will know how to build a case that includes compensation for the entire value of recoverable damages, ensuring that the injured receives the highest quality treatment possible. Brain injury cases are often complicated by the victim’s lack of memory or inability to convey what occurred.
