Understanding Traumatic Brain Injuries
A traumatic brain injury can result from a bump, blow, jolt, or penetrating injury to the head during an accident. Slips and falls, car accidents, construction accidents, and items falling from heights can all cause serious brain injuries. A concussion is a form of mild traumatic brain injury, while other traumatic brain injuries may be moderate or severe. Symptoms may appear immediately or develop over hours or days, and they can clear up quickly, linger for a year or more, or become permanent.
Symptoms often include:
- Difficulty paying attention: Someone who usually has no trouble focusing may struggle to pay attention to routine tasks after an injury or concentrate for long periods.
- Speech and language difficulties: After the injury, you may have difficulty understanding speech or communicating verbally or in writing.
- Slurred speech: You may mumble or struggle to find words.
- Memory problems: Many people struggle to remember what happened immediately surrounding the accident. Short-term and long-term memory may be affected, including remembering recent tasks, appointments, or older memories.
- Processing difficulties: Thinking through a task or remembering how to do something may become more difficult after a traumatic brain injury.
- Hearing problems: Hearing or the perception of sound may change after the injury.
- Vision difficulties: After the injury, you may have trouble seeing. Your vision may be cloudy, or “floaters” may appear. You may also have difficulty focusing or interpreting visual information.
- Headaches: They may be severe or long-lasting.
- Seizures: They may occur once or recur over time.
- Difficulty with emotional regulation: If you’ve experienced a traumatic brain injury, you may struggle with uncharacteristic episodes of anger or tears. You may behave impulsively or struggle to respond appropriately to various situations.
Seek immediate emergency medical care for serious warning signs such as a worsening headache, repeated vomiting, seizures, slurred speech, increasing confusion, weakness, unusual behavior, or an inability to wake.
Who Is Responsible for Paying for Your Traumatic Brain Injury?
Identifying who may be legally liable is critical to pursuing payment for your losses. To recover damages, you generally must show that another party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused your injury and resulting losses. For example, in a car accident, a driver may breach that duty by failing to watch for traffic or operate a vehicle responsibly.
Liability depends on the circumstances. A claim may require connecting the responsible party’s conduct, the accident, the traumatic brain injury, and the losses that followed.
