What Are Common Injuries After a Car Accident?
While some auto collisions are relatively minor, many result in severe injury or even death. When someone is seriously injured, they may require years of medical treatments to recover. In cases of catastrophic harm, a person may never be able to return to work or regain full use of their body. Typical injuries after a car accident may include:- Broken bones and fractures - Because traffic accident victims often try to brace themselves for impact, some of the most common fractures occur in the arms and wrists. Other breaks that may result from a collision include broken legs, ribs, back, hip, pelvis, and facial or skull fractures.
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI) - Car crashes are among the leading causes of traumatic brain injury in the country. TBI can result in permanent disability, including the loss of independent function.
- Whiplash - Whiplash and other neck pain happen most often in rear-end collisions where the body is forcibly thrown forward. Whiplash can range in severity and may require spine surgery to correct.
- Lacerations and amputations - Serious car wrecks may cause severe lacerations or even amputations. A deep gash may do tissue and nerve damage which prevent a person from ever regaining full use of their extremity.
