Winter Haven Automobile Crash Victim Advocate Since 1977
Whether you are involved in a head-on, rear-end or sideswipe auto accident, you run the risk of suffering serious injuries that may significantly alter your life. Some of the most common injuries car crash victims experience include the following:
- Traumatic Brain Injury
- Whiplash
- Fractured or herniated vertebrae in the neck or back
- Lacerations and fractures
- Leg, knee or foot injuries
While some of these injuries show up right away, others may not. This is why it is so important to allow medical responders such as paramedics to examine you at the scene, and then follow up by immediately going to the hospital or seeing your doctor. You may think you have escaped unscathed when, in reality, you are experiencing shock and a false sense of well-being created by endorphins released into your system by your traumatized body. Once these natural painkillers wear off, you may find yourself in a great deal of pain due to any one or more of the above injuries.
It is also particularly dangerous to hit your head during an accident and not get an exam conducted by medical professionals. Traumatic brain injuries such as brain bleeds may not exhibit immediate symptoms, but delaying treatment can lead to severe outcomes including coma and death.
