Traumatic Brain Injuries, Skull Fracture, Head Injury

Head injuries often occur due to a sudden blow to the head, either from a sudden impact or jerk from a car accident to a serious trip, slip or fall. Head injuries can occur at the office, around the home or anywhere else.  They can happen to a child that falls off a trampoline to a worker that is hit with a piece of boulder to an elderly woman that trips on the street.

Any trauma for the skull area can be life threatening. Your skull is a pretty solid bone but it can be cracked and crushed, both of which can lead to a traumatic brain injury among other complications including:

• Skull fractures (simple, depressed and compound fractures)
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Open head injuries
• Closed head injuries
• Concussions

If you are faced with a head injury you may be able to walk away unscathed. A minor concussion, for example, may only take a few days rest to recover. However, in other instances, you could be left with permanent disability, paralysis, loss of cognitive ability, loss of movement, loss of sensation, severe headaches, chronic pain and even fatality in some instances.  Over 1.4 million people per year experience a traumatic brain injury and millions of others experience other head injuries. While you may not be alone in your suffering, this does not mean you should accept what has happened without a fight.

Recovering from a head injury starts with you.

The problem is, often it can be impossible to move on with your life without financial assistance. After all, many people suffering from a head injury will be unable to work and may need several weeks, months or years of rehabilitation and monitoring. You may need to speak to neurologists, book appointments for MRI’s and Cat scans and undergo extensive rehabilitation.  You may need to completely change your lifestyle to accommodate your needs. This often takes financial stability in order to do so.
