Unfortunately, drunk driving, distracted driving, and recklessness still cause thousands of accidents every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A traumatic brain injury happens when a sudden jerking motion causes your brain to bounce around the skull. This can damage cells and cause serious neurological side effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common types of injuries to the head are a concussion. This can leave you with a headache or temporary memory loss. However, some symptoms can persist for months. Some long-term symptoms include anxiety and problems with social behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A moderate brain injury will leave you unconscious for at least 15 minutes and will likely lead to hospital admission. It can take nine months to heal.&nbsp;Meanwhile, a more severe brain injury could cause a lengthy coma and hospitalization.&nbsp;A personal injury attorney will help you seek compensation if you have suffered a traumatic brain injury.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fractures and Broken Bones<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Car accidents and falls are some of the most\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/dklaw.com\/learning-hub\/injury-types\/fractures\/\">common causes of fractures<\/a>\u00a0and broken bones. It is vital to have a doctor examine you after a car accident, as you will feel like everything hurts. Any swelling, tenderness, or bruising may be hiding a fracture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some cases, a severely broken bone may show visible deformity. You will undergo an X-ray to determine if you broke or fractured the bone. Your doctor might put your broken arm or leg in a cast.\u00a0 You may need surgery for your broken bone. If you need to heal a bit before surgery, your doctor might insert screws in the bones to hold them in place.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several ways you might sustain a fracture in a car accident. This can happen if you are thrown from the vehicle. The force of the collision could also cause different types of injuries, but broken bones are the most common. In some cases, the airbag can cause a fracture when it deploys.

In the vast majority of cases, drivers are left with a spinal injury, along with other types of injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your spine is vital but vulnerable. The vertebrae protect valuable nerves that control your body\u2019s functions. When you are in a car crash, a violent jolting motion can tear ligaments, fracture the vertebrae, and damage these nerves. You could end up partially or completely paralyzed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recovering from a spinal injury can take months of therapy and rehabilitation. This can become very costly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Meniscus and Rotator Cuff Injuries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may feel you escaped relatively unscathed from your accident. However, even if you have no broken bones or brain injury, you may be entitled to compensation. The brutal shock motions of an accident can twist your knee or shoulder joint. This can lead to injuries that show up a few days after the accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most common types of injuries to the knee area is tearing the <a href=\"https:\/\/dklaw.com\/learning-hub\/injury-types\/meniscus-injuries\/\">meniscus<\/a>, a piece of cartilage between the shinbone and thighbone. This can cause a lot of pain and swelling. Your daily activities will be difficult to carry out, and you will likely need physical therapy to recover. In severe cases, you may need surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people might also find themselves with a rotator cuff injury after an accident. This group of tendons and muscles allows you to move your arm and shoulder. When the rotator cuff is injured, you can suffer long-term difficulties in lifting items or reaching for things. Some might need surgery, while others will need physical therapy to recover.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"dklaw-toc__block align wp-block-dklaw-toc-block\"><div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can a Personal Injury Lawyer Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your injuries might entitle you to compensation and necessitate hiring a personal injury attorney.

They will help you communicate with them and ensure you get the proper compensation. If not, they will help you take the personal injury case to trial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be entitled to economic damages for any financial losses. This covers medical bills or lost wages for any time you had to take off work. Non-economic damages will cover the personal harm you may have suffered.
